Developing Deeper Awareness of Diversity with Jaime Delgado: Episode 154

Relate w/ Patrick McAndrew

For episode 154 of Relate, we are joined by Jaime Delgado. Jaime is a clinical social worker and educator who specializes in teaching people matters around diversity, equity, and inclusion. In our conversation, we talk about Jaime's journey in discovering their queer identity, why fear seems to be the main trigger for people to oppress, why we feel the need to hide our authentic selves in the professional world, and why we must know ourselves to the fullest in order to implement change in the world.
