Overcoming Bias Habits - An Evidence-Based Guide to Creating a Joyfully Inclusive World
The book is now available for preorder at Amazon or Barnes & Noble!
Season 3 of the Diverse Joy® podcast, which releases October 2025-November 2026 was designed to match the chapters of the book. Season 3, Episode 1 - “Joy as Resistance and Bias Reduction”, corresponds to the introduction and chapter 1.
