Created for the MAIP Community, by the MAIP Community, Left Unsaid is a podcast where we speak our truth, celebrate our talents, tell our stories and explore what matter most to us. It’s time to leave everything on the table and make sure nothing is left unsaid.

Left Unsaid is a podcast where we speak the truth, highlight the effort and champion the movement MAIP alumni and people of color have made and are making in the industry. Created by MAIP Alumni and the 4A’s foundation,  each episode explores our struggles, our wins, and the lessons we’ve learned along the way.

Blending his experience as a strategist , coach, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion professional and human being, he connects with guests to explore the vast experience, stories and perceptions living with in the MAIP Community.
