Carissa Reinsborg is an American expat in Norway and has a degree in psychology. She and I talk about some of the challenges we are faced with when dealing with the health care system and job market as black Americans in Norway. We also discuss feminism and the role of the modern woman. I pose the question: Is at least part of their struggle self imposed?

I'm John Alan, and I'm solo again and sharing my thoughts on the latest events this week, as well as announcing my fist attempts at standup comedy since March 2020. You'll also hear about my appearance in a nationwide television program in Norway. I'd still be doing this episode, but I stopped when I smelled Snoopy's barbecue.
From me, John Alan,
to my listeners and viewers:
I am a believer in "Enlightenment Through Dialogue". I carefully choose my guests for my show. I do this show because I am looking to learn from people who inspire me, motivate me, or teach me more about the wonders of life. This is my journey as I work to put myself in a better condition and position from which I can help others as well as myself.
Come on home, kick your feet up and join me.
