This week on Tapod we catch up with an old friend – Joanne Lockwood – the inclusive culture expert @SeeChangeHappen. Jo’s journey is fascinating and so very important to all of us – particularly in a world going backwards. This episode is longer than most, but it’s well worth it. We cover all manner of challenges in the inclusivity space, from recent changes in the UK around the definition of sex, US executive orders affecting the LGBTQIA+ community, gender disparity and more. It’s raw, it’s emotive, and it’s essential listening
