The Perspective View
Multiple perspectives can be true, it depends on your point of view! The Perspective View Podcast is a show dedicated to discussing equity, diversity, culture, and context beyond the boardroom. DEI today is more than a buzzword on a billboard. It is about creating safe spaces for varying perspectives, ideas, and experiences without fear of being canceled because you don’t conform. Let’s tear down the walls together and build a new foundation with an open mind and understanding that the world revolves around the context of perspective.

The Perspective View
6: Candid Conversations: Weight Watching, Handling Compliments and Criticisms
On this episode of The Perspective View Podcast host Tomeria Jordan is joined by Dereka Moten to discuss how compliments and criticism shape our perspectives about ourselves. This is a conversation you don't want to miss. In the age of social media and social comparison it is easy to get bogged down with the "weight" of others opinions. Our hope is that through this conversation you will gain a different perspective and start to see yourself living free and unapologetically.
