Eloping with the Truth
In a changing world we, Joyce and Anna, question what it means to exist in a rapidly evolving and modern society. Each episode considers a variety of topical issues, perspectives, and the importance of sharing your narrative through interviews with inspirational and insightful people. We aim to uncover the power we all as individuals have to create change and pursue ambitious goals, discarding excuses like our age or current ability. We encourage everyone to step out of their comfort zones in favour of becoming the best versions of themselves.

Episode 2
In this episode we discuss the topic of Colourism and its application in everyday life along with our experiences and opinions as teenagers. Whilst we all have a basic understanding of racism - Colourism is still a fairly new concept and topic of conversation such that this episode is not a conversation between experts but rather teenagers who like to have interesting discussions. We hope that our opinions will only add to helping you form your own.
