I'm joined by an inspiring guest and private client, Joana Dos Santos. They are a coach and have brought their years of experience advocating and fighting for social justice to the world of coaching. Joana believes that to live in a socially just world, we need to focus on changing policies and practices AND the inner work to living these values. Through self-exploration, we can examine how we may be perpetuating unfair systems of advantage/oppression and how to live from an equitable place.
