SUMMARY:Podcast Club: “Break the Rules! How Audacity Levels Up Life and Career”
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever heard of\, or been to\, a Podcast Club? If this is new to you\, then great – it’s a new event for us too!  A Podcast Club is just like a Book Club\, but instead of reading a book before participating\, you listen to a podcast.   \nThis spring’s Podcast Club features the podcast “Dipped with Sweet and Hot” co-hosted by WRJI volunteer Hollee Mangrum-Willis ‘04 with her friend Melanie Loren. These two share southside-of-Chicago roots and they breakdown the world in a hilarious and thought-provoking fashion\, from a Black female perspective. \nGrab the beverage and snacks of your choice and join us to discuss the episode titled “Break the Rules! How Audacity Levels Up Life and Career\,” (Season 3\, Episode 5\, 52 mins).  This episode features actor\, director\, and advocate Tiffany Yvonne Cox of Hulu’s drama series “Reasonable Doubt.” Tiffany spills about how breaking the rules and owning your audacity can flip challenges into big wins. You can listen on Apple Podcasts\, Spotify\, and Pocketcasts or look for their podcast on your favorite platform. \nAdvanced registration is required. The Zoom link will be sent before the event.
