Braided strategy and community power with Ai-jen Poo

You’re a twenty-first century human, we know you’re busy. So when we launched our new podcast The Greenroom, we decided that in addition to deep-dive episodes, we’d also make minisodes where Courtney would distill some of the takeaways from each conversation. 

In this first minisode recap, Courtney takes just a few minutes to serve up some of the juiciest pearls from her conversation with Ai-jen Poo with a special focus on collaboration. 

Honestly, we’re still taking it in that 74 (!) organizations co-wrote the white paper on  “care as infrastructure”  which went on to become a real cultural and political touchstone during the COVID-19 pandemic. What a testament to the power of community. 

If you haven’t already, you can get more of this wisdom straight from the source. Go back and listen to the first full episode of The Greenroom with Ai-jen Poo on why changing hearts is more important than changing minds. 

Next week we’ve got two great episodes with the pugnacious Shannon Watts - a brilliant ADHD brain, and a tireless organizer for a world without gun violence that we’re excited to share.
