The Mindful Marketing Podcast (Formerly Known As The Savvy Social Podcast)
Business:Marketing
Systemic racism is real. Thankfully, there are daily actions we can all do with just a little more intention and practice to help create the change we need. Alethea Cheng Fitzpatrick visits with me to discuss what diversity, equity, and inclusion means for digital businesses, why self-awareness is crucial to changing systemic racism, how to co-create space for your community to share experiences, the power of asking “tell me more” and how to have necessary conversations so we can keep moving forward together!
In this podcast episode, we share:
What diversity and inclusion means for digital business owners Recommendations for how to be more aware of the internal work we all need to do Advice for how to share with transparency and accountability How to lower the cost for people in your community to speak up The power of asking questions and the “tell me more” method
Memorable Quotes:
“When we’re talking about systems of oppression, we’re not just talking about what’s visible but about what’s invisible…” “Inclusion is really where everyone feels not just that they belong, but they really feel valued for the uniqueness they bring to the table.” “I do believe the work has to start with ourselves and looking at what assumptions we’re making, about who we’re talking to, who’s even in our social networks, what voices we’re hearing, what perspectives we’re hearing, what media we are consuming…” “Speak from your own healing while also centering on the most impacted.” “It really centers on actually not trying to educate or convince someone but really speaking for yourself.”
