Ep. 108 Girls Scouts Deputy Director Mary Mitchell: How to bring your best self to important conversations (and what to do when you don't)

Our conversation with Mary Mitchell is the second of four with the 2020 YWCA of Metropolitan Phoenix Tribute to Leadership honorees. Mary serves as the Deputy Director, Girl Scouts—Arizona Cactus-Pine Council. In her 21 years with the organization she has served in a variety of capacities and now serves as the senior advisor and co-lead for the organization’s work related to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Mary and Catherine discuss what diversity, equity and inclusion mean in today's world, and how they can be meaningfully incorporated into change making work. They talk about how to bring your best self to important conversations - and what to go when you fail to do so, as well as coping strategies for the stress of doing important change work in our community.
