Society & Culture
Gaby is joined this week by the brilliant and delightful Najah Farley of the National Employment Law Project to talk about working from home, essential workers, and fighting for a living wage. How has work changed for the better or worse since the pandemic started? What can you do to protect yourself financially and emotionally? Plus, some hilarity involving the state of Florida and "your white co-worker Meghan." Have we mentioned that Najah is an incredible guest? Then, Gaby hears from listeners who have started their own small businesses all about their motivations, struggles, and successes.
