#PrideMonth has marked an excellent time for me to personally reflect on the actions I can take each day to foster an inclusive and supportive environment on my teams and with my clients. This article featuring ten of my colleagues is a helpful guide.

As we celebrate diversity, inclusion, and love, let’s take a moment to reflect on the progress we’ve made and the work that lies ahead. Pride Month is a time to honor the LGBTQ+ community, recognize their resilience, and advocate for equality. 🌟 Why Pride Matters: Pride commemorates the Stonewall Uprising of 1969, a pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ history when brave individuals stood up against discrimination. It’s a reminder that visibility matters. By being our authentic selves, we empower others to do the same. Pride fosters acceptance, understanding, and allyship. Let’s continue to learn, listen, and amplify queer voices. 🌻 How Can You Show Support? Educate yourself: Learn about LGBTQ+ history, challenges, and achievements. Be an ally: Use your privilege to uplift marginalized voices and advocate for change. Celebrate love: Whether you identify as LGBTQ+ or an ally, love knows no boundaries. 🌈 At ASK Energy, Inc., we stand with the LGBTQ+ community. Our commitment to diversity and inclusion extends beyond Pride Month. Let’s create a world where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. #PrideMonth #LoveIsLove #InclusionMatters
