This week onPodcaster Stories, I sit down with Jenell Riesner and Rachel Bellotti of The True North Collective.

The True North Collective is a gathering of un-sugar-coated conversations on authenticity, created by the real-life real-life documentation of two humans discovering and hacking what it means to reconnect with our own true north.

how their approachto life brought them together
their plans for a more nomadiclifestyle in 2021

how they’ve opened up more as their show has evolved
why being “messy” in life makes living more authentic
why they started the Amplify mini-series, to share the untold stories of black, indigenous, and people of colour
why we need to stop, listen, and truly learn about what others are going through
why we need to use our platforms more to help those that don’t have one of their own
the episodes that have stood out for them, and why
