Welcome to Chasing Encounters, a podcast where we share stories that connect us, enlighten us, and encourage us to move forward. e encounter people from all walks of life, mainly BIPOC, people with disabilities and those in the LGBTQ+ community. At the heart of our conversations are language, culture, and identity, but most importantly, how these various encounters meet and intersect.
