Welcome to Balancing Cultures Interview Extras!
The stuff that is too good not to share but didn’t fit in the episodes.
Where the Extra Comes From
Jane’s clip about our personal cultural identities and baby names is from a bigger conversation in Episode 40.
When this episode was published, it had been one year since my first episode “aired” on May 7th, 2020. In what I thought was the middle of the pandemic, I pushed through with my pre-pandemic plans of starting a podcast.
Why did I take that chance? How did I push through all the challenges? What have I learned along the way? Listen to episode 40 to hear the Balancing Cultures Story.
Meredith’s clip about how I met my husband is from a bigger conversation in Episode 45.
Meredith Keith-Chirch of M for Health, joins for a chat about holistic lifestyle choices to support personal intuitive health. Health is about all the small choices we make through the day, the habits we hold and the values that drive them.
We discuss how important is it to look at our health outside of cultural expectations and social norms to find our individual balance. We touch on friend, family and work pressures, the benefits and flexibilities of routine, and how it all starts with one small change.
Ashlee’s clip about social media with our kids is from a bigger conversation in Episode 45.
For this conversation, I invited Ashlee Gadd to join me. She went viral with her collective motherhood blog Coffee and Crumbs but she has also felt the low lows of social media overload.
Today, we start with the social media love story that pushed her into the spotlight. Then we explore how, over the years, she used discernment, boundaries, and authenticity as a part of her balancing to protect her mental bandwidth.
Ella’s clip about the patriarchy is from a bigger conversation in Episode 47.
Ella Jarman-Pinto is here to make more room for marginalized people in the world of composing. She grew up surrounded by music, both parents in the jazz scene encouraging her to test and try and create music without risk of wrong. Being told Everything you create is valid.
Along the way, Ella lost her passion to create but a little boy named Marvellous John helped bring her back. Now she has a drive to change the face of composing and boost equity along the way.
