When you haven’t even gotten out of bed and realize that the universe chose pettiness on this 26th day of April 🙃🙃. I will take the advice of beloved R&B singer Monica and “not take it personal”.
Today I had to remind myself that it’s okay to feel sad and anxious on the inside even when it’s sunny outside. Be kind to yourselves and honour your emotions folks ❤️
Observing some DEI practitioners who relentlessly tout the importance of intersectionality and empathy coming at this Oscar scenario from a very singular and sympathetic perspective. Not judging, just noticing like us Aunty’s do. Choosing not to speak on what is an extremely
Necessary reading material whether you’re a people manager or not. @lmadokoro dropping some serious 💎
It’s such a weird, gaslighting flex when people get called out by their peers or former colleagues for sharing the truth about the discrimination and harm they experienced in the workplace. So being given a salary and equity is fair trade for the denial of your trauma?!
To know @sshorey is to witness a person who shows up with dedication, passion, brilliance, commitment, and resilience every single damn day. I’m blessed to call this beautiful soul a mentor and friend. Yelling congratulations at the top of my lungs. So well deserved ❤️❤️

So excited to moderate this @AccelerateOTT fireside with @Sosaspeaks of @BWTalkTech and DEI leader @PinkRobotTO
Kick off your Wednesday morning with the three of us, and then stay tuned for keynote speaker @manjitminhas

215 Indigenous children found dead.
215 reasons to learn about residential schools.
215 reasons to reflect on Canada's blood stained colonial past.
215 reasons to face this country's role in genocide.
An infinite number of reasons why an entire country should be grieving.
My fave @Shopify perk?! A one month paid sabbatical after 5 years of service to rest and refuel. Note to self: you don’t need to rely on a perk to take extended periods of rest 🤯. Catch ya on the flip side ✌🏾✌🏾❤️#intermissionlife
