𝑴𝒆́𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝑺𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒆 𝑴𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒐 personally don’t like doing interviews.We love having conversations with our guests, because we feel it’s the best way of understanding a complicated situation and seeing it from someone else’s perspective.
Conversations matter because they are a foundation of good reporting, they make us avoid sitting still on our own opinions and judgment, emphasize the point or angle of a story, represent an opinion, provide important facts and information, or offer a counter argument.
We enjoy the process because we have stories to tell, wisdom to impart, confessions to make and we do it with purpose, genuine desire, drive, passion. Mostly with passion because without passion, it’s nothing but a chore. It’s not just about asking the right questions. It’s about genuine interest, flow, vibe, sincerity, concern, digging deeper, defining the unclear, attracting stories, avoiding awkwardness, and being conscious about all of that at the same time.
We are observers. We take in every aspect of life and transpose it into a tale of the heart. We tap into the roots of life. There’s always something to say. Most people don’t see it, but it’s there. And that’s our role: to make people aware. See the unseen and draw it out into the light. Some see blue skies, while we see eternity. Life is a story made up of moments. There’s always a story to tell.
This is why we try to bring to you exceptional conversations, with reciprocal genuine interest in our topics, incredibly informative perspectives that most people haven’t thought of or seen before and to give you consistency from one chat to another without sounding like a broken record when you have a chance to listen to the conversation archives all in one day.
This is why we created 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒊𝒙𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒊𝒔𝒕 – 𝑯𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒖𝒔 𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝑰𝑪, our new chat dedicated to providing inspiration to people working on the front lines of the multicultural world, whose voices are underrepresented. We strongly believe that amplifying voices benefits everyone, including the underrepresented ones.
Today, 𝑴𝒆́𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝑺𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒆 𝑴𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒐, Hands over the mic to 𝑺𝒐𝒑𝒉𝒊𝒆 𝑺𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒉𝒊𝒚𝒂 𝑨𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒕, a Mixed Indian-British and French lawyer and human rights advocate who promotes and safeguards mixed heritage rights. We spent an amazing time together in a deep conversation about Mixedness, rolling it round on a 360 degrees spinoff.
Thank you Sophie for helping me convey the message that only by acknowledging the multiplicity of our identity we can begin to simultaneously own our uniqueness and fully inhabit our ties to our fellow human beings. And thank you for giving all of us the opportunity to reconsider our “right place” in this Society which tends to embrace only the law of duality.
