Finding Refuge, Fostering Resilience
In this episode of The Culture We Speak, I sit down with Ms. Regina Cline for a profound conversation about the experiences & challenges faced by refugee & immigrant populations, emphasizing cultural humility, active listening, & the value of embracing diversity. Cultural humility is defined as a lifelong commitment to self-evaluation, acknowledging power imbalances, & fostering respectful partnerships. Ms. Cline shares personal anecdotes to highlight the importance of empathy & genuine listening to understand the unique perspectives of refugee and immigrant communities. In our discussion we celebrate the richness that diversity brings & explore how it fosters innovation across settings.
Ms. Cline earned her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Belhaven University. She earned her Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University. Ms. Cline spent her previous career in the Social Work and Addiction fields. She has a passion for diversity and immigrant issues, which was birthed, in part, from her experience as a social worker. She is currently the Founder and Executive Director of Embracing Diversity, a 501(c)3 founded serving the immigrant community. Ms. Cline is currently pursuing her doctoral degree in Public Affairs/Public and Nonprofit Management at the University of Texas at Dallas. She has also taught “Diversity in the Public Sector” and “Nonprofit Management” courses.
