My guest on the podcast is Alisha L. Gordon. Alisha is an awarded teacher, faith leader, and social strategist whose work intersects social advocacy and culture. She is the founder and Executive Director of The Current Project, a nonprofit organization, committed to closing the social and economic gaps for Black single mothers, utilizing the intersection of strategic programming and policy to lengthen the runway for thriving.
In our wide ranging conversation we talk about her work with The Current Project and why helping single black Moms is good for building healthy communities. We also chat about her work as a faith leader and how one's gifts make space for you and how your creative and cultural curiosity could be the breadcrumbs that lead you to your next breakthrough.
