Breaking the Mold

You know the phrase “Don’t judge me until you’ve walked a mile in my shoes”? Diversity is the spice of life. Here at “Breaking the Mold”, we interview people with different life experiences, and gain their perspective on the world and society. The goal of this podcast is to give listeners a broader perspective, and a better understanding about those different from ourselves. We will talk with people who don’t fit society’s typical mold in hopes to be educated and gain greater empathy for our neighbors.
