Today my guest is Rebecca Kling.\n\nRebecca is an educator, performer, community organizer, storyteller, and advocate for social change. \n\nRebecca is also an advocate for transgender rights, is involved in the Sierra Club\u2019s Beyond Coal campaign, and the co-founder of Better World Collaborative, a trans, woman and Latinx owned consultancy rooted in social justice and the creative arts.\n\nI met Rebecca in the pilot of the Earth Stories workshop that was hosted by StoryCenter. We learned about Earth Stories in the last episode.\n\nThe workshop was my introduction to her advocacy work, and how storytelling is a tool she uses throughout her work with individuals and organizations.\n\nIt is this aspect of her work that we will focus on today.
