ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
Through pursuing her curiosity and passion, Arlan’s found a way to create a living and a life for herself and work on a really tough problem: reconfiguring the ways that money and funding flow through these underrepresented and underserved populations.

- We are all privileged in some way. Arlan has a beautiful perspective on how we can all share in that privilege without diminishing our own.

- and lots more….
