Omg! I remember her being on the View- she was talking about CRT in schools and I really liked her contribution to the conversation. It felt balanced, not like some of the other hosts who feel like they are too aggressively for or against something just to get more ratings. @TheView you should have her on again the viewers liked her.

I loved the part about learning the skills while you are applying for the job. I keep staying in my current position because I feel like I don’t know “how” to do my boss’s job…but this was powerful to me ❤
