Each week I share a theme to help inspire, educate, and motivate you in hopes of helping you discover, reach, and maximize your potential. This week's theme is empowerment. In this short video, we can empower others by speaking up. Please take a moment to watch it and consider raising your voice this week. During Black History Month, let's celebrate by speaking up against racism, sexism, discrimination, and other acts that undermine the power of individuals. ✊🏿🗣️ #Empowerment #BlackHistoryMonth #SpeakUp #Equality #Justice #Activism #EmpowerOthers #SocialJustice #RaiseYourVoice #DEIA #empowerothers #leadership #leadbyexample

Answering Your Calling: The Legacy We Leave Behind In a world bustling with activity and brimming with people, it's easy to feel like just another face in the crowd. But each of us carries a spark, a unique blend of talents and passions that can light up the world in a way no one else can. I recently came across this 👇powerful message that resonated deeply with me: "Live so that when you die, everyone knows there's something missing in the world." It's a profound reminder that our time here isn't just about the milestones we reach or the accolades we collect. It's about the imprint we leave on the hearts and minds of those we touch. Answering your calling isn't about grand gestures or monumental achievements. It's about embracing who you are, diving into what you love, and sharing that love with the world. It's about creating, serving, and giving in a way that only you can. So, ask yourself, what is the legacy you wish to create? How will you answer your calling? Share your thoughts, and let's inspire each other to make our mark – to ensure that when our time comes, the world will feel the space where our light once shone. #AnsweringYourCalling #Legacy #MakeYourMark https://lnkd.in/dR-QDtDm

Wow Black History Month and Reggae Month in one - cultural and history overload! Many people ask why we have to celebrate black history. Quick answer - because no one else is and everyone needs to have their story told. It's the same thing with reggae. I come from a small nation that punches way above its weight and a lot of our punch comes from our music. This month I want to stretch my thinking and learn some lessons from popular reggae songs and some history. I am not sure that I have a whole month in me but let's see how far we go....... Day One! No Woman nuh Cry by Reggae Legend the late Robert Nesta Marley. At long last we are paying attention to mental wellness. According to the National Library of Medicine "It is increasingly being recognized that the mental health of employees is a crucial determinant in their overall health and that poor mental health and stressors at the workplace can be a contributory factor to a range of physical illnesses like hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular conditions, amongst others. In addition, poor mental health can also lead to burn-out amongst employees, seriously affecting their ability to contribute meaningfully in both their personal and professional lives". So how is mental wellness at your workplace? Are the women (and men) crying out for help? Do you have facilities in place to support them? Do they know about these resources? Can they use them without being shamed? Do your leaders know how to recognise when people are crying out for help? Where do you score on this list and what do you need to do?

D&I: "I don't care if you're black/gay/female, etc." – Why We Should Be More Like Ted Lasso The phrase "I don't care (about your identity)" is often touted as a marker of open-mindedness. However, this well-intentioned sentiment can inadvertently perpetuate the very issues it aims to combat. The problem lies in the words "don't care." Not caring implies a passive stance, one that dismisses out of hand the unique challenges faced by individuals due to their race, sexuality, or other aspects of their identity. In Season 3, Episode 9 of Ted Lasso, the character Ted beautifully articulates the importance of "actively caring" as opposed to simply not caring (Watch the clip here https://lnkd.in/eeTQAyPK). In the episode, Ted provides a textbook example of how leaders should react upon hearing "I don't care." A player comes out as gay at half-time following an incident with a fan. His teammates tell him, "We don't care if you're gay." Rather than letting the comment go, Ted tells Colin, "Actually, we DO care," and goes on to say that he can only imagine the struggles Colin has faced. He apologises that Colin had to go through it alone but assures him that he won't have to go it alone anymore. Actively caring involves recognising the unique experiences and challenges that people from diverse backgrounds face. It means creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued for who they are. This proactive approach fosters a culture of empathy and understanding, which is essential for any organisation aiming to be genuinely inclusive. So, the next time you hear "I don't care," don't walk by. Be more like Ted and make sure your team knows that you do care. It's a small shift in language, but one that can make a world of difference in promoting a more inclusive and caring environment. 🌈🤝 #DiversityandInclusion #TedLasso #ActiveCaring #Inclusionweek
