Season 2, Episode 4: Vocation Abroad: Who Do We Become When Forced Outside the Comfort Zone?

Jun 17th, 2022 7:00 PM

In this episode we hear from Koa Beck, one of the current Wild Hope Fellows. Koa has been doing great work with us this year, dividing time between coming to the Fellowship and studying abroad in Oxford. Due to this, Koa has had to be up until two in the morning talking with us, and we greatly appreciate her.

After that, the co-hosts have a discussion about how learning about other cultures changes your world view.

Season 2, Episode 1: Introductions
