It's A Privilege
Welcome to "It's a Privilege," the podcast where we dive deep into the subtle and not-so-subtle privileges that shape our lives. Hosted by Jason Browne, inspired by his TEDx talk and forthcoming book "Possibilities of Privilege," this series explores how unearned advantages affect us all — from beauty and mental health to family backgrounds and geographical impacts.
Each episode, featuring a diverse lineup of guests from Rotary leaders to celebrities and activists, unpacks a different aspect of privilege and examines how it can be leveraged for positive change.
Join us for thought-provoking stories, expert insights, and a fresh perspective on the roles we play in a more equitable world. Tune in to challenge your views, discover unseen advantages, and learn how to use what you have for the greater good.
Available on all major podcast platforms and in video on Spotify and YouTube.
