Ever wished you could get a taste of a vibrant cultural celebration right from the comfort of your couch? Well, brace yourself as we, alongside our guests, Janelle and Kai from Stronger Together, journey through the soulful, rhythm-filled world of salsa and bachata dancing, open mic nights, and even a salsa-inspired toy giveaway!
Our latest episode is chock full of anecdotes, wisdom, and hearty laughs as we discuss the transition from organizing protests to establishing a nonprofit organization. We share the amusing tale of our recent office move and the surprising challenges that came with it. We also delve into event planning, revealing the nitty-gritty of obtaining permission to shut down a street for an event and the power of buzzwords like inclusivity and safe spaces. As we celebrate diversity, we also confront the tensions between conservative and progressive communities, with a focus on understanding different cultures and finding common ground.
We wrap up with a reflective discussion on resilience, patience, humility, and the importance of community support and collaboration. We unveil our future plans for Giving and Salsa, a unique initiative combining our love for dance and philanthropy. From our experiences at the La Mas Festival to our plans for the Giving Sunday Market, you'll get an insider's peek into our world. So, pull up a chair, tune in, and let's dance to the rhythm of life together!
