Conversations are hard but create growth that is needed. On today’s episode, I am so excited because we’ll be jumping into our interview series. So, if you missed it, I encourage you to go back and listen to Ep. 3 where I explain the purpose of my research and I describe a bit about my participants demographics. Today, I have the privilege and honor to speak with my friend Kriston who is also on the journey of obtaining her doctorate at Georgia Southern University in the very same program that I am studying, Curriculum Studies. Kriston is 39 years old. She has been married to her husband for 18 years and has been together a total of 25 years. Her daughter is 14 years old. She is from Georgia and still resides in Georgia, although not in the same town as where she grew up. She is both an educator and Coach. I was really excited to speak with her about her journey through life. I was particularly interested in talking about how her perspectives have changed through the study of power struggles, oppression, and positionality that we cover in our program.
