019: Changing Lives with Dr. Zabina Bhasin

Have you ever thought about the fact that we have months dedicated to history? Women’s History Month and Black History Month are examples. But why isn’t their history already included in the textbooks?

This is one of the topics discussed in this episode with Dr. Zabina Bhasin. Zabina is a diversity and inclusion expert who founded In KidZ, a subscription box service dedicated to cultural learning. We chat about her founding this company and what it means to her.

What’s in this episode:

How South Asian is a more precise description versus saying Indian.

Zabina’s experience of growing up a first-generation immigrant

What she learned from going to university in India

Why inclusivity and values are important to teach to kids

What her subscription company is and what they do

How they’re working to partner with schools and teachers

Why history needs to be taught in a more inclusive way

How we have to all work together to make a change

021: Guided By the Golden Rule with Rachel

Progress can’t happen if we aren’t putting in the work and taking action to make a change. In this episode, I was joined by Rachel Wade. Rachel is the brilliant woman behind Guided By the Golden Rule. I first discovered Rachel when I read her Scary Mommy article earlier this year.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of talking to her about how we can teach our white children about race. We talk about why this is necessary and how you can infuse black stories into your child’s life early on.

What’s in this episode:

The rebirth process I went through to step into my new self

Why Rachel believes in sharing her experiences

Rachels reasoning behind starting this dialogue about race

How a conversation with a friend sparked her article for Scary Mommy

Why you need to teach your white children about race

How to expose your white children to black stories

Why you have to apologize even if you didn’t know it was inappropriate

Why everyone making incremental, positive changes is needed
