About this listen

Have you ever felt like you had to shrink yourself to fit in? Been the "only one" in the room? Or felt pressure to speak for your whole community?

In Season 3, Episode 2 of Critical Conversations, we begin our new series Who Switched My Code? by exploring tokenism as a form of social adaptability. Together, we'll walk through the three phases: Adaptation, Reaction, and Representation. I also tell my own personal story with tokenism and reflect on how I moved from survival to authentic leadership. Code-switching has a cost; let's unpack it together.
