We are one year since the world as we knew it changed. We were forced to spend time away from the outside and engage in the practices that we'd come to both appreciate and value. As my grandmother would say, "Time is not as long as it has been." One year later, what are the lessons learned about yourself and others? What are your takeaways and how are you moving through the earth as a person of faith post pandemic?

This episode of Praxis, No Filter features Dr. Savitri Dixon-Saxon, Vice Provost for the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences with Walden University. With a 27-year career in higher education. Dr. Dixon-Saxon’s primary areas of interest are the psychosocial identity of African American women; intergenerational workplace dynamics; and leadership and mentoring in distance education. As a single and custodial parent, herself, Dr. Dixon-Saxon has focused her research on the issues of African American single mothers, especially those who are in poverty and those who are trying to achieve and maintain middle-class status as single parents.

This conversation represents the culmination of the intersection of faith, hope, resilience and finding joy in the unexpected - that which perhaps we should have connected with long before.
