Episode 1: What is My Why?: This episode is a brief introduction to The Kalinago Compass.™ A heartfelt kickoff to The Kalinago Compass, this episode shares why I built a business rooted in being the educator I needed as a Black girl to feel seen, safe, and guided. I unpack the moments that shaped my calling, the gaps I’m determined to fill for students and families, and the compass points that will anchor every episode: belonging, advocacy, and practical tools. Join me as we set our direction toward equity, courage, and generational possibility.
