On the 6th episode of the Only KADs Podcast, Claire, Jenna, Nate, and April marvel at the spectrum of challenges and life experiencing facing their loved ones in *ahem* middle age, and how they navigate being the only PoC in a friend group. They discuss how race and identity inform their own sense of safety in a conversation, and how to balance all * of * the * things in this complex existence!
