The Power We Hold Podcast S01 Ep01: Our Intentions for this Podcast

The Power We Hold

Thank you for joining me, your host and visual artist Vanessa Albury, on my journey as a better ally to people and steward of the environment in podcast form as The Power We Hold!
In our first episode of The Power We Hold, Caleb Williams and I chat about our intentions for this podcast adventure together. create this podcast as a companion tool for your journey and to spark hope and more in-depth conversations between people from all backgrounds, lighting a way for hope and action towards a better way. We discuss Caleb's work, how we met, the power of art and some aspects of the issues around facing race as a person in a privileged class. I'm honored to share my journey with you and Caleb's companionship along the way.
