    Why not me? Dismantling Internalized Oppression

    Let’s Talk About It. Respectability politics. Your fears. Your doubts. Your insecurities. Your mindset. The things that are causing you to shut down- undermine your value- silence your voice - and dim your light.

    This two-part conversation is intended to remind participants about the dire need to unapologetically reclaim their identity, and prioritize their emotional, physical, and spiritual wellness. Audre Lorde’s words, “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation…” is a call to action for all of us navigating daily spirit and soul attacks and racial trauma, while advocating for equity and justice.

    How can we navigate hurtful situations and environments and remain centered on who we are and our value? Simple answer: our history, roots and cultural identity, resilience, and perseverance.

    Join this conversation prepared to share, and learn practical “by and for us” approaches that will allow you to face each day with radical joy, intention, confidence, and self-love.

    Becoming & Unbecoming for the Journey Ahead

    Who do you need to be in order to show up as your authentic self in the ongoing fight for social justice?

    Leadership: Beyond Titles & Gaslighting

    Real leaders cultivate and empower leaders. Real leaders lead with values, not titles. Do you agree?

    Unfortunately, many individuals in leadership roles fail to walk their talk. They use their privilege to undermine, tone police and make false promises in order to accomplish their goals.

    Are you a toxic boss relying on manipulative behaviors to get the job done? Are you a leader struggling to motivate and inspire your supervisees? Are you someone responsible for managing people, but struggle with transparency and truth telling? As a leader, is white supremacy culture causing you to leave people of color behind?

    If you answered yes to any of the above questions, this conversation is for you.

    If you would like to enhance your ability to coach, mentor, motivate, influence, and inspire others, join us for this courageous and enlightening conversation.

    The Keys & Benefits of Accountability

    Accountability. What is it? What does it mean? We have been talking about accountability in the workplace for decades. Unfortunately, we often only talk about it when something goes wrong. And, at that point, it’s generally too difficult and awkward to talk about it while putting out the fire.

    “Accountability is like a muscle – you have to work it every day to make it stronger.” -Unknown

    How does accountability look and feel in your workplace?
    How do leaders hold employees accountable in your organization?

    Facilitators will also offer tangible tools and practices for creating and fostering a culture of accountability that centers the voices, leadership, and experiences of people of color.
