This episode centers on an aspect of my life that impacts my work as a consultant- parenting! 

My conversation with Dr. Nalishebo Mothibatsela highlights intentional efforts we can make along our parenting journey to shift our paradigm and change our family dynamics. She is a pediatrician and entrepreneur who understands the power of self-work and the gift of self-awareness.

This discussion is not only for parents and future parents! Anyone who is on the road to becoming their best possible self will benefit from Dr. Mothibatsela’s perspective.

She recently launched Kidocentric, which focuses on holistic care for all children. Learn more at @kidocentric on social media and kidocentric.africa.

This is partly due to the fact that I was sitting directly across from my guest, Juliette ‘Juju’ Karitanyi, Director of Communications at Health Development Initiative. The other reason is that during the discussion Juliette gave us a deep dive into gender equality, health, and women’s rights in Rwanda. She has a way of sounding sweet even while speaking on topics that some may find controversial. Listen for yourself :)

Juliette is a communications specialist, women’s rights activist, and advocate for gender equality in Rwanda. She believes in changing and challenging social norms and culture to foster an enabling environment for meaningful gender equality.

Gail Rego is a communications consultant, human rights activist, intersectional feminist, and ethical technologist. Our discussion explores her experiences with colorism & racism and the ways she has pursued healing, rest, and joy. I’ve been reflecting on this question since our conversation—

If trauma can be passed down from one generation to the next, why can’t joy?
