Deep Shallow Dive
It's time to 'Call a Spade a Spade.' In each episode of 'Deep Shallow Dive,' I break down past and present events, revealing how narratives and distractions create a sense of division. Together, we'll pull back the curtain to uncover the truth and find that we're not as divided as we might think. We will do this through the Lens of Common Sense and our Defining DSD Pillars of Self-Awareness, Resilience, Authenticity, and Empathy. We go DEEP enough to get the truth—SHALLOW enough to keep it sane. This is Deep Shallow Dive. Let's DIVE in. Ok, Let's Go.
