​As an educator, Jamie Beck is deeply immersed in the challenges that have been faced by members of our society during this pandemic. During this interview, you will hear how her stalwart focus on peace and nonviolence has offered her a unique perspective on how to navigate our current challenges. During this interview, she offers advice to educators who may be dealing with undue stress. For me, the examples she gave could be extrapolated and applied to our day to day lives. Jamie is one of the co-chairs of the Mahatma Gandhi Canadian Foundation for World Peace. She also teaches at the University of Calgary.

Episode 14 — Interview with your hosts

We're back after our two week holiday break. We couldn't be happier to be bringing you more stories of people who care about their world. This time, the guests you'll hear from are your very own hosts. This special episode was recorded months ago, shortly after we began recording and listening back to our interviews. It's strange to listen to something that doesn't seem to be "old" by any means, but still feels like it was happening to a "me" from a long time ago. Time is passing strangely this year (and last). I know that since we recorded this interview, we have all grown as people, and this podcast has grown as well. I wonder how things will change in the upcoming months. I suppose we'll find out along with everyone else, and who knows? Maybe we'll even record an episode about it, later on down the road.
