30 December 2023 - The Labels We Choose for Ourselves
In this episode of the show, I speak with my very good friend Shannara Quissell, an amazing attorney and Executive Director of the Colorado Name Change Project. Shannara and I discuss the important things in life: our right to define ourselves, our obligation to trust each other, and the beauty of the brocket for storing documents.
