“Remove yourself from the narrative that this work can be accomplished by one action. It’s not attending a workshop, a training, it’s not doing one social media campaign. This is long-term lifelong work that has to be sustained. So being willing to put yourself or your organization in a position where you’re constantly learning and unlearning is part of the work of shifting your posture.” - Virginia Cumberbatch of Rosa Rebellion This week I have two phenomenal women with me on the show, Virginia Cumberbatch and Meagan Harding, the co-founders of Rosa Rebellion, a platform for creative activism by and for women of color. In this episode we have an incredible conversation about how to use your space as a business owner to co-agitate for racial justice. You’ll learn how to practically show up as a business owner and evaluate your internal practices, processes and organizational paradigm before rushing to external statements and efforts. As a business owner it can be intimidating to show up and use your platform and voice appropriately and effectively. This episode will equip you with actionable tips to help you navigate all of this in your business. I invite you to listen with an open heart. I believe it will make you, the way you do business, your community and our nation better.
