We’re more comfortable being uncomfortable. We’re ready for direct conversations about racial justice. We realize we can be the shapers of the system, instead of being shaped by it.
You people don’t waste any time! You invited us to bring our whole selves to work. You held leaders lovingly accountable to their staff. You helped us create solutions and strategies for clearer decision making, power sharing & trust building.
In our work together, I felt deeply heard, seen & connected. I leaned into my own wisdom & lived experience. I stayed true to myself. I reclaimed my stories and my power.
I see you as magicians. You read the room, pull thoughts & ideas to the surface, and nurture whatever comes up. You lead with joy & abundance and make space for what’s hard. You invite us to be brave & specific.
You helped my inner creative weirdo to flourish.
With your support, we found new ways of working together; to co-create, embrace multiple perspectives & try out new ways of being/doing. You somehow could hold the work of individual, collective, and structural change, and in that journey, helped multiple levels of our organization to shift.
