  • G & G 13 - How Do We Move Forward?

    This week we had the honor of having a special guest with us to further our discussion on diversity and inclusion. Janaya Watson Tshionyi, WCLO Diversity and Inclusion Lead at Uber, joined us to talk through one of the biggest questions many of us are asking ourselves today - how do we move forward?

    Listen in as Janaya shares her experience growing up in a small town with bi-racial parents, raising her own racially diverse family, and helping to lead an organization and her community in a quest for a more accepting and inclusive future.

    She shares some tangible tips for how we can create tailwinds of change and become allies in our communities by using our voices in our every day lives. We think you're really going to love what you hear and how easy and actionable taking next steps to make an impact on the world around you can be.
