Welcome to another episode of Live Stoked, Lead Stoked! In this episode, Sarah engages in a thought-provoking conversation with guest, Veronique Porter, delving into the nuances of navigating discomfort in relationships with people who have different beliefs. Sarah and Veronique discuss the importance of embracing the messiness of relationships and experiencing both highs and lows in life to appreciate the fullness and joy of living "stoked." They also explore the significance of heritage-based observances in navigating diversity and inclusion initiatives in the workplace, as well as the unexpected development of Veronique's business focusing on race and gender impacts on relationships and organizations.
