Episodes
In this episode, we dispel the myths that have been spread about Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB). This is an important episode. One that sets the record straight.
In this episode, we talk about the importance of taking a principled stance. Just a few years ago, individuals and corporations alike proclaimed racism a public health issue. What's the difference between then and now? The society hasn't changed. The policies haven't changed for the better? In fact, millions of people are wanting to see us step back in time. So many people are more comfortable with policies that reflect the "power"...
Releasing Whiteness is back! In this episode, we explore the ways whiteness is really a product of fear, particularly for those who experience whiteness as a place of belonging. We talk candidly about the ways othering can be used to keep individuals and groups in check (too afraid to rock the boat, too afraid to speak their truth, too afraid to stand for our shared humanity). Othering has been used as tool to keep whiteness in pla...
We're exploring accountability. Individual accountability and collective accountability. In this episode, I get real. I share two stories of harm I'm responsible for and introduce Mia Mingus' work on accountability. I share a bit about how I work toward accountability in my own life AND THEN I connect the conversation to our collective experiences. Specifically, I talk about the ways the United States of America needs to work on ac...
I've created a new podcast. This is all about collective healing and liberation. Episode 1 is an introduction.
I share the reason I started the podcast, I delve into the ways trauma and oppression have presented challenges and. material barriers to collective liberation, I call in spiritual teachers and all the practitioners of "Love and Light" who are silent as we live through these most violent times, and I offer humanizing ideas...
In this Soul-Centered Conversation, I am talking with decolonial scholar and Bay Area DJ and entrepreneur, Jose Arias, about healing Black and Brown relationships. Jose was born in San Francisco to a Salvadorian father and white-identified mother from the Mid-West. He identifies as a son of El Salvador and the Bay Area. This mix of backgrounds, as a decolonial scholar and as someone of Latin American and American descent, made him ...
In this conversation, with musician, musical soul, Sambadá member, and co-conspirator, Annie Stafford, we explore white responsibility in ending racism. As a "Black-bodied" person, I have come to see that the labor associated with ending racism has largely been placed on "bodies of culture" (bodies of culture is a term to describe Black, Indigenous, People of Color coined by Resmaa Menakem). I also believe, ending racism requires t...

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
