Description
When preparing the launch of the Plywood Podcast, we decided to launch by sharing two interviews of very different women! Jeni Britton Bauer was first. Next up, we ALL have the GIFT to hear from Danielle Coke, a designer turned illustrator, social justice advocate, and entrepreneur. She seeks to encourage faith, inspire justice, and guide us through loving our neighbors well. Her illustrations aim to make complex issues more digestible and help others find and use their passions to make a difference in their spheres of influence.In this episode, Dani shares a story that she's never shared before about the racism she's experienced, she talks about her journey of becoming an entrepreneur (overnight success or not?!), and we talk about tools and actions we can all take when it comes to anti-racism work. If you can, take notes. Be inspired by Dani's hope!Follow Dani on InstagramLearn more about Dani's work and shop her store!------Welcome to the Plywood Podcast: Real talk for social entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders.
