Shae Harris:

– Currently serves as a Policy Advisor within DC Government working on issues related to the criminal justice sector

– Believes that systemic change happens at the policy level & by activating directly impacted communities

– Truly believes that the changes we’re seeking are already embedded within us

– Self-care guru

– Avid napper

Jessica Gray:

– Mother of 2

– Values self-awareness, work ethic, and integrity

– Changed careers three times and still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up

– Has an unhealthy relationship with perfection

– Audiobooks are my jam

This conversation was one that focused in on our obsession with perfection and how do we shift to focusing on being useful. Being useful includes honesty, acknowledgement of our accomplishments, reaffirming our abilities, as well as utilizing tactics to promote self-care.
