After we finished recording, I told Sarah she is one of the most humble yet smartest people I know.
Dr. Sarah-Soonling Blackburn has a PhD and decades of experience teaching and coaching teachers. Now, she brings this conversation about her background, her unique life story and experience with a mom who is Asian, a dad who is white American, and the intersection of those worlds.
In her upbringing, she lived and traveled around the world. The cultural differences that she watched and experienced gave her an opportunity to see the world, relationships, and people for who they are.
She grew to celebrate each person, and to elevate their unique, distinct differences. It's not a win-loss, zero-sum game. There's an opportunity for all of us to truly hear the stories of the people around us.
And that's what we're going to talk about today with Dr. Sarah-Soonling Blackburn.
