Julia Bubrin, Kerry-Ann Douglas-Powell, and Terri Donohue
Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking event as we dive deep into the concept of intersectionality and its vital role in understanding our diverse identities and experiences.
This panel conversation is part of the EDI series.
In this interactive conversation, we’ll explore how various aspects of identity—such as race, gender, sexuality, ability, and socioeconomic status—interact and shape our experiences in society. Through personal stories, expert insights, and group discussions, we aim to foster a richer understanding of how intersectionality affects our lives and the communities we inhabit.
This panel conversation also aims at making a safe space for the shared reflection on “how as coaches intersectionality informs our coaching practice.
