KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM ANDREA:
Language is so important in DEI work, and it begins with asking the right questions and thinking more broadly about the outcome you are seeking.
You can’t help anyone else until you help yourself, and it can look like giving yourself a break when doing DEI work. You must protect your peace and your power.
Create conversations to leverage support around the authority you must implement and the change you work for, before you get to the burn out stage.
Find your community.
Do not sacrifice yourself for companies that don’t show you the same love back. Know what you’re fighting for, but it comes down to prioritizing yourself.
Document your wins, when you do something well, write it down, share it and cheer about it. When you do get those “no’s” remind yourself of your wins by reflecting on them.
Therapy, rest, and diving into your personal interests are just some ways to stay balanced with the impact DEI work can have on your life.
