#585: Truly Become An LGBTQ+ Ally & Run An Inclusive Business With Hank Paul


Listen Later

What being an LGBTQ+ ally really means & how it can help your business’ long-term growth

One of the most important things you can do as an entrepreneur is to ensure you are running an inclusive business. Not only is it the right thing to do as a human, but it can also help your business’ long-term growth. 

This has been a big initiative of mine over the past several years, and something that I’ve committed to daily. 

But here’s the thing. Many of the conversations about LGBTQ+ inclusion didn’t start happening until pretty recently, so you still might have a lot of questions about the whole topic in general. 

Heck, you might even feel intimidated about what it actually means to become an ally, and what an inclusive business looks like in real life – and guess what? That’s OK!

The fact that you’re interested in learning how to create a world where everyone is valued and respected is a great place to start -- and here to answer all of your questions on how to run an inclusive business is my student, Hank Paul. 

Hank is an award-winning wedding photographer, writer, Queer inclusion strategist, and creator of Authentic Allyship Academy, where they teach students how to inclusify their businesses and become confident and knowledgeable allies. 

In this episode, they share: 

  • Specific ways you can be more LGBTQ+ inclusive in your business
  • How being LGBTQ+ inclusive help facilitate long-term business growth
  • The biggest misconceptions that businesses have about LGBTQ+ allyship
  • How to avoid being a performative ally, and become an authentic ally
  • Plus much, much more! I promise, sweet friend, if you’ve wanted to become more inclusive in your business but have been unsure of where to start, then this episode is for you. 

    So pop in your earpods, grab a tasty beverage, and give this episode your full attention.
