Overcoming In Color

By: Melsha Key
  • Summary

  • A safe space podcast for Black and Brown women to find solidarity, solutions and strategies for life's challenges. I wanted to provide a space to elevate Black and Brown women's stories and to provide that community of support, encouragement and hope, allowing other women of color to know you are not alone in your challenges and you can also overcome! Also, for those that have started or are on a journey to being advocates and allies for Black and Brown women, here is a chance to understand challenges we face and to be able to lean in, advocate and support us.
