Let’s explore some assumptions that create barriers and approaches for surmounting some of the barriers to playing nicely.

Our stories, or narratives, are complex, intertwined and constantly evolving. it is important to avoid a single story about anyone or anything. We are more than our labels. How has your story changed? How have you changed your story about how you interpret your world? Listen here to how Chimamanda Adichie has moved away from a single story.
