When Shay Marlowe's high school engagement with the Special Olympics blossomed into a lifelong dedication to diversity, equity, and inclusion, it set him on a transformative career path. Now, as a DEI training specialist with the Minnesota Child Welfare Training Academy, Shea joins us to share his compelling narrative and the tangible impact of DEI efforts within communities and the workplace. We kick off with a heartfelt recollection of our encounter at the Duluth Thrives Summit, tracing Shea's journey from a Racial Ethnic Student Aid at Michigan State University to combating employment barriers for marginalized groups.
Navigating the labyrinth of our own identities and biases requires a mirror that reflects our true selves. In our discussion centered on the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI), Shea and I invite listeners to embrace the feedback from this eye-opening assessment, not as a judgment, but as a catalyst for personal growth. We unpack the nuances of identity and the conscious effort needed to mitigate unconscious biases. By acknowledging the shades of gray in our understanding and taking intentional strides towards inclusivity, we underscore how self-awareness can pave the way for a more cohesive society.
Finally, we take you on a cultural odyssey, celebrating the unique stories that weave the fabric of our identities. I share my own experiences of relocating from New Jersey to Georgia, a move that coincided with the state's cultural self-examination. We dissect the subtleties of Southern hospitality and dig into the strategies that can create a true sense of belonging in educational environments. From the profound impact of correctly pronouncing a student's name to the significance of recognizing their individual stories, Shea and I reveal how these acts of acknowledgment can foster an inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels valued.

As I sat across from Whitney Harvey, the beacon of workforce diversity and inclusion, I was struck by her commitment to transforming Minnesota's business landscape through multicultural education. Whitney's personal evolution from a healthcare compliance background to a fervent advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is not just inspiring—it's a testament to the power of passion in creating meaningful change. Our conversation travels the challenging yet rewarding path of engaging business leaders in tough dialogues, breaking down barriers and myths surrounding DEI, and fostering inclusive environments that not only recognize but celebrate our differences. Whitney's approach is a reminder that although the nation may be divided, hope and unity can be cultivated through continuous, open conversations.
The rich tapestry of our cultural, racial, and neurodiverse identities is more than a backdrop—it's the very fabric that strengthens our communities. This episode digs into the essentials of understanding and respecting this diversity to overcome fear and unite us all. We examine the magic that happens when curiosity meets respectful communication, uncovering the common threads in our shared human experiences. From the Minnesota Chamber Foundation's strategic initiatives to the passion of the younger generation reshaping corporate values, the episode highlights the marathon that is affecting change.
Join us, as together, we work towards a future where every individual's unique contribution is not just welcomed, but integral to our collective success.COME SAY Hey!!

Have you ever witnessed the unfolding of a multicultural family's narrative through the lens of empathy and education? Diana Oestreich joins us to detail her remarkable journey from a predominantly white upbringing to championing diversity and equity, particularly in our education systems. As we navigate the nuances of her family life in Northern Minnesota, Diana shares the emotional and resilient stories of raising her two sons—one of whom was adopted from Ethiopia—and the challenges they face, including confronting racism in educational settings. This heartfelt exchange underscores the essential role of love, advocacy, and acknowledgment in crafting a supportive environment for all children.
When racism taints the innocence of education, what is the role of a parent, an educator, or a community member? We grapple with this question as Diana recounts painful instances where her younger son faced discrimination, and how the family rallied to protect and affirm his worth. Our dialogue brings to light the power of speaking up against injustice—how a simple act of intervention can be a beacon for change and support. Parents and educators alike are called upon to be fierce advocates for our children, creating respectful, safe spaces that celebrate diversity rather than merely tolerating it.
Wrapping up our conversation, we plunge into the transformative potential of personal stories to bridge divides and promote social justice. Diana's transformation from a soldier into a peacemaker echoes throughout our discussion, inspiring us to consider how we can all contribute to building a more inclusive and just society. We also touch upon the Waging Peace Project, an initiative close to my heart that fosters local acts of courage to spread joy and justice. As we close, we leave you with a reminder of the imperative to engage in conversations around race and identity in every household and how this paves the way for our children to thrive in a world that yearns for unity. Join us for this enlightening dialogue and learn how you can follow Diana's work and delve into her wisdom further.COME SAY Hey!!

Uncover the transformative power of words in our latest Cultural Curriculum Chat, where we delve into the nuances of language and its impact on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I). I'm your host, here to guide you through the linguistic minefield that can inadvertently marginalize communities. In the fabric of our daily interactions, it's crucial to understand the phrases that may perpetuate stereotypes or cause harm. From the subtle undertones that affect Asian Americans, Black individuals, and Indigenous peoples, to the words that touch the lives of the LGBTQIA+ community and those with disabilities, we're on a mission to foster an environment where our communication is as inclusive as the society we aspire to create. This episode is a call to action, inviting you to join me in making each word we speak a step toward a world where everyone feels respected and valued.
Take a virtual seat in my digital classroom as we tackle the challenge of creating a workplace culture that celebrates diversity. With comprehensive materials from my online course, you'll be armed with the tools to master cultural complexities and stand in solidarity with marginalized groups. Engaging with the course prompts and practicing the rephrasing techniques discussed will not only enhance your awareness but also empower you to be an agent of positive change. So, prepare to be part of a meaningful conversation and a community dedicated to diversity, as we continue this journey towards a more inclusive tomorrow.
Tune in, transform your communication, and help shape a world where diversity is not just recognized but revered.COME SAY Hey!!
