17 - Solidarity Sisters

Our team is reunited this week, as Shelleena and Nneka welcome Karia, Amanda, and Nicole to the podcast once again! While our conversation starts by chatting about an episode of Sex Education (warning: brief spoilers), it turns into a much deeper discussion about sisterhood and friendship. We end our conversation with the message from Shelleena (and the whole team) that when we talk about sisterhood, we mean that in the truest sense of the word, and that we actively want to work against cis-terhood and cisnormativity within these spaces. Nneka also shares some information about becoming a member at WomenatthecentrE, and if you would like to learn more please visit: https://www.womenatthecentre.com/members/

This week we’re drinking Kendall-Jackson Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay. We gave this wine a buzz rating of 2/5.
