Every now and then, I like to drop an extra episode! This week, I'm pulling one of my favorites from the archives.
Nanjala Nyabola is a writer, humanitarian advocate, political analyst, and author of Travelling While Black: Essays Inspired by a Life on the Move. In this episode, we dive into giving back as a traveler, the impact that travel can have on your relationship with fear, how to recognize privilege, and why you can and should do many various things in life (no niching required).
What resonated most with you in this episode? Let me know by sending me an audio message.
