Imagine growing up in a multi-generational household, with two entrepreneurial parents, and being queer yet straight-presenting. How would this shape your lens on life, business, and inclusivity? Join me as I dive into a lively conversation with Annie P Ruggles, the founder of the Non-Sleazy Sales Academy and Quirkworks Consulting, to explore her unique perspective and journey.

Annie shares her awakening to her white privilege and how moving to Chicago opened her eyes to the different treatment her friends of color received. We then discuss the significance of rebranding, offering invaluable advice on how to approach it without completely starting from scratch, ensuring it is inclusive and non-performative. Hearing Annie's story will inspire you to think about your own brand and how it can be more inclusive.

Lastly, we uncover the power of joy as a beacon of hope, even amidst adversity. Drawing inspiration from Victor Frankl's book, Man's Search for Meaning, we discuss finding joy in the face of oppression, exemplified by a woman taking down a Russian drone with a pickle jar. We reveal how joy can simultaneously be an act of rebellion and a permission slip for others to fight for their rights. This episode will leave you inspired and empowered to seek joy, embrace change, and strive for inclusivity in every aspect of your life.
