Building work spaces where inclusion and belonging are the norm means…

Decolonizing Work.

They value my ‘work’ and not my voice.

This is what a colleague told me after she got an award for her work from the company she was with. This resonated so deeply with me and was a part of the inspiration for this virtual listening experience, Decolonize Work.

In this series, I talked to business owners, change makers, educators and service providers about their work and how decolonization plays a role in how they do what they do. 

These conversations were life changing. I invite you to take them in, let your heart be deeply stirred and your whole being be inspired to cultivate work ecosystems where humans thrive.

If you

  • are already committed to removing systemic barriers to belonging and

  • are cultivating a work culture that supports human thriving and

  • wonder how to actually infuse workplace inclusivity and belonging into every part of the employee lifecycle without jeopardizing your business goals and profitability…

Let’s workshop it!

Our free, private team effectiveness workshops are designed to help you Decolonize Work by helping YOUR team learn the specific core team capacities that can be strengthened simply. Let’s help you create the right foundations for sustainable and regenerative work ecosystems.

    "I talk about Decolonizing Work so that my black male child can walk though the world safely, and eat skittles and wear a hoodie, without the fear of losing his life."

    This is how Giavanni and I started this beautiful conversation, had the way only black mamas can have it.

    “As we speak, we heal” - Yanaëlle Ntwa

    Decolonization at work means changing the narrative around who gets to share which emotions at work. This conversation is about grief and story-telling as a tool of healing (and content creation!) within normal, weekly workflow.

  • Decolonize Work with Anuradha Kowtha

    Decolonize Work with Anuradha Kowtha

    "The tears we shed waters the seeds."

    In this Decolonize Work conversation, Anuradha and I reflect on what it would actually mean for people to be able to bring their full selves to work. We talk about the experience of grief that many marginalized people deal with constantly and the fact that showing and sharing grief isn't something that is done 'at work'. We talk about how the work day could have space for grief, depending on the needs of the actual humans in our workspace.
