In this candid and courageous follow-up, Siobhan welcomes back returning guest Dr. Hannah,  whose first appearance sparked some of the podcast’s most heartfelt conversations. This time, they go even deeper, unpacking white privilege, identity, and the uncomfortable mirrors most white women avoid. Drawing from Hannah’s academic background in multicultural studies and Siobhan’s lived perspective, they explore what it really means to dismantle bias, stay accountable, and build community without losing your humanity.

This isn’t a performative chat about privilege,  it’s a soul-level reckoning. It’s equal parts classroom and confession booth: raw stories, laughter through discomfort, and the radical honesty required to grow. Together, they wrestle with white feminism, systemic bias, and the burnout that comes from wanting to “fix” instead of actually listen.

It feels both familiar and fresh, a continuation of a conversation that never really ended, and a bold step into territory most people don’t talk about out loud. By the end, it’s clear that allyship isn’t about perfection; it’s about persistence, accountability, and choosing connection over comfort.
