My guest today is Di Ciruolo. She's a diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility consultant with an incredibly inspiring personal story. She helps individuals and organizations look deeply at the cultures they're creating and how to shift those cultures towards a place where true diversity becomes possible.
She's the author of the forthcoming book Ally Up, which is designed to go deeper into her process and methodology for helping individuals and organizations become allies for a more diverse and inclusive culture. Di's life and work stand as a deep and heartfelt commitment towards making the world better for people who have been on the receiving end of the violence and brutality that our society enacts onto too many of us.
Sounds pretty heavy, right? But Di is able to engage with it all from a place of humor and love. That's what struck me most about this conversation: the "both/and." This is both really heavy, and we are capable of living with the same compassion, joy, and love that Di brings to the world. We don't have to choose.
This conversation is for anyone who has the privilege of being identified as white in our society and who is ready to do more as an ally for people of color. I hope that it opens possibilities for where we go next and how we might get there together.
