Episode 10: Sally Steele

In this episode we have a great conversation with Sally Steele around belonging, bringing dignity and hope into different situations, and being people that have eyes that see and ears that hear. Sally shares about the importance of seeing things from different perspectives and widening the circle of who belongs and who gets to decide that.
