Helene Rodger from 'Passion for Fusion' chats to Scotland's Women on what is was like travelling to Scotland for the first time and how she helps others make Scotland their home. And how we as Scotland's women can learn from each other and un learn. Wee snippet from the show....."I always ask when I'm doing like training and anti-racism training, I always ask people like, think about your circle of friends. Or think about your circle of trust or think about not in the work situation, because in work we all work with different people and that's fine.We come and go. But beyond that, how many people are different from you? That tells you a lot. If you can answer that question, and I'm not asking you to answer it and think about like real community, real friendships around you. Yeah. How many people are different from you are from a different culture. Uh, from a different country are a different colour.That tells a lot about us as a society in Scotland when we're thinking about, um, race and colour and culture. In culture because it's about learning about what the other cultures do that we can pick up or we can work with as well. And so for me, that one is like friendships. Deep connections is one of the things that I want to teach people"

And for me, I had such a shift that I was like, I just wanna share this with other people. It's just life doesn't need to be that difficult anymore. And having let go of the attachment I had, for so many years"
