Kimberly McLaughlin-Smith
Episode 6
Friday, 15 May, 2020

I met Kimberly McLaughlin-Smith on Facebook and was absolutely captivated by her wit, depth and love of Reggae. We communicated virtually for almost a year before realizing that we both worked for the same University. She is a Diversity and Inclusion Specialist and she wears that title like a fitted glove. She is kind, compassionate, brave and curious and she is incredible at creating safe spaces to talk about difficult things like diversity, oppression, privilege and the universal need that we all have to belong. She is fun. She is funny. She is wild about growth, transformation and doing her work. She was named New Hanover County's Woman of the Year in 2007 and she travels the country facilitating dialogue and working towards positive change for all people. She is also known as the "Night Nurse" as she DJ's, Reggae Redemption on 98.7 FM every Sunday from 10-noon and facilitates conversation afterwards on her Facebook Live. So sit back and enjoy our conversation about self-awareness, vulnerability, show and tell, doing the work and the lessons that motherhood has taught her. And be patient....this is "Nothing Fancy" and we had a few technical difficulties in the beginning. They are short lived, I promise!
