Join the Conversation!

Intentional Conversations Vodcast (video + podcast) is hosted by the NWC Team. Every Friday from 11am – 12pm EST, we bring different voices from the DEI space and those tangential who are uplifting marginalized communities’ voices.


DISCLAIMER: We are excited to bring you Intentional Conversations, where we engage with a diverse array of guests who share their unique perspectives on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work. Please note that the views and opinions expressed by our guests do not necessarily reflect those of Nika White Consulting (NWC).

In our commitment to fostering a growth mindset, we believe it is essential to explore a wide range of ideas and approaches to DEI. We encourage our subscribers to consider the various methods and insights shared in these conversations as part of their own journey towards understanding and implementing DEI principles.
