That's Not How That Works

In this episode, we talk about the journey from Ally to Accomplice. We define performative allyship, and why its a problem, and explore the pathway that someone must travel in order to be in full partnership and support of people of color. Also... our TNHTW's Facebook group is live and open to the public. Here's the link... join us! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1077973785700853/

In this episode Weeze and Trudi are discussing a word that had been used a lot in the equity and diversity field: emotional labor. We'll discuss what it is, why its a lot of work, and why folks don't want to do it for free. Also, we'll discuss how to protect yourself from doing unwanted emotional labor and how to be restored.

In this episode, Weeze and Trudi discuss what it means when someone says Check Your Privilege. We explore the different types of privilege people hold, what it means to check that privilege, and how it triggers some people when they hear it. We further address some manifestations of white privilege and give some examples of how to use privilege to create equity for marginalized communities (which is really the whole point of our work).

In this episode Weeze and Trudi switch seats and Trudi shares about her experiences about growing up in small cities in Connecticut, never feeling like enough, becoming a teen mom at 15, and creating her own path.

In the spirit of sharing different stories, and being vulnerability this week, we are hearing how Weeze became Work AF (also the title of her site at https://accordingtoweezus.com/). Hear how Weeze went from a little homie in Oakland with strong North African roots to the advocate, coach, and badass that she is today.

Happy Monday! We're just checking in really quick to talk about the difference between vulnerability and sharing parts of yourself. We're also going to announce our plans for the next two episodes (which we are really excited about).

In this episode, we discuss Trudi's experience at World Domination Summit 2018 and lessons that can be learned by listening to the experiences of People of Color who go to these types of events (conferences, masterminds, retreats, etc). We'll share a few things that organizers can do to make their spaces more diverse, and more comfortable for PoC attendees. A special shout-out to the WDS Core Team who have consistently made efforts over the years to create more diversity at their annual event. See you in 2019 :) Good Job Doing Better!

In today's episode, Trudi and Weeze talk about "The Work". We discuss what it means, the phases of the work, why it's important for all people to explore their own identity, privilege and power (yes... including people of color). We also talk about the problem with the word Tribe, and how much we wish folks would stop using it.

In this episode, Trudi and Weeze explore the crisis at the border and the policies that have allowed thousands of children to be taken from their families. As coaches, what is our obligation to be having these discussions both publically, and in our private communities? What if our niche has nothing to do with this "stuff"?

In this episode, Weeze and Trudi discuss BBQ Becky's, who they are, what role they play in the world, how to deal with them, and most importantly HOW TO NOT BE ONE. We also cover how BBQ Becky's show up in the coaching and personal development world. Remember to check us out on Patreon at www.patreon.com/nothowthatworks
