New World Normal
We are questioning, disrupting and transforming "Normal" to something more sustainable and enriching for us all. Debbie Harrell and her guests are challenging listeners to rethink their current routines & habits, their "shoulds & have-tos" and live more aligned with their passions and purpose. We are sharing stories of individuals who are making impactful changes in the world around them, working to create a more healthy, holistic, and inclusive future. We believe that the power to create social, environmental, and racial change lies with the collective, and we hope to inspire our listeners to make positive shifts in their own lives that will then ripple out and create positive change in the world.
