We’re so excited this week to have Aiko Bethea. She's the Senior Co-Director of The Daring Way and Dare to Lead Communities and the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion Sr. Advisor and Executive Coach for Brene Brown's Education and Research Group. Aiko is also a mother, activist, lawyer and badass woman fighting for change in workplaces. Aiko tells us her story of growing up and how mindsets and prejudice affected her growing up, and how they played into what she's doing now. Aiko takes us through how companies should be providing intentional spaces for POC's and those in the LGBT community. She also offers wisdom on how to create safe spaces for those who are different than us. Aiko and Nancy share some stories on reconciliation; how we can see it today and how to be an agent for it in your own context. They also talk about diffusing shame and learning to see and empathize with others' perspectives. Join us for this jam-packed interview!
