S2Ep6: What we don't notice-ish: Creating Community through Connection and Courage
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Catherine Dennis whose life and work are a testament to what it truly means to create spaces of belonging. From her work in early childhood education to launching initiatives that uplift her community, she has devoted her life to building inclusive, supportive environments where every person—especially the youngest—feels seen and valued.
But her journey didn’t stop at programs and policies. As an adoptive mother to children who don’t look like her, she has wrestled with uncomfortable truths, dismantled her own assumptions, and embraced the deep work of growth and empathy.
Together, we explore the transformative power of listening, the role of self-reflection in creating inclusive communities, and what it really takes to make people feel like they belong—not just in theory, but in everyday life.
Whether you're a parent, educator, or simply someone who wants to foster more connection in your world, this episode will leave you inspired to lead with love, humility, and purpose.
