It’s Sunday, after the US Presidential election, and Kamala Harris is the Vice President-Elect of the United States. A South Asian, Black woman is set to become the Vice President of the United States of America. In this week’s episode, I reflect on everything that is in my heart when it comes to the change that’s happened. What the last 4 years have been like in my life, and why it’s important that we make meaning of the changes that are happening and to take a second to enjoy this moment.
