For most of us, 2020 has been a challenging year.

After the recent election results, history has been made, and we can all move forward together - united. Now feels like a perfect time to take a moment to finally unplug a bit and tune out the news and social media and tune in to these favorite 2020 podcast episodes from our speakers!
