  • I Am PerspectiveGaining perspective one conversation at a time.

    "Right now, there's a level of false empathy that we exude as people. But if I sit here and talk with you and you tell me about intimate stories about what's going on in your home and how that's affecting you, it becomes different. " - Jo'rell

    I Am Perspective curates programs that are intended to nurture and respect each and every shared perspective, providing a safe space for all, free of judgement or personal inhibitions stemming from societal pressures, like the need to be ‘politically correct.’ With targeted explorative questions, every conversation also challenges participants to dive deep within themselves to uncover the “why” behind their current perspective.
