Dancing in the Discomfort Zone with Anne Bonney
Let's face it, life is uncomfortable. Whether it's interacting with other humans (or trying to), going after our goals and improving our lives, or understanding other people's perspectives, preferences and proclivities, being able to face the discomforts in life with courage, compassion, confidence and resilience will make life a lot more enjoyable! So join me as we DANCE IN THE DISCOMFORT ZONE! We'll explore new ideas, learn how to build our confidence, courage and resilience, and laugh a little too, because life is serious enough. We need a little cha cha, and a little ha ha every once in a while! Welcome to the Discomfort Zone with Anne Bonney!

Episode 92: The Courage to Examine Racism
In this episode I talk about my own journey to opening my mind to examining and thinking about, and trying to understand racism. It's a difficult and painful concept, and always uncomfortable to think and talk about, but vitally important if we want to create change so nobody feels like "other" and equal opportunity actually is a thing! Take a listen and let me know what you think.
