Episode 1: Code-Switching & Unconscious Bias
In this powerful debut episode, host Dewan Smith-Murray explores the emotional weight of code-switching and the deep-rooted impact of unconscious bias related to race, gender, and religion — especially for African American professional women.

Dewan shares a deeply personal experience of being asked to leave a mental health clinic after two doctors refused to work with her based solely on the color of her skin. She unpacks the silent pressure to conform, shrink, and suppress her identity in professional spaces — all while still trying to help others heal.

🕊️ This episode is about truth. It’s about healing. And it’s about no longer hiding.
If you've ever had to wear a mask to be accepted, this one is for you.
