Thank you for the kind words and the opportunity to be part of such an incredible event! Wine & Dine: Celebrating Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity with Culinary Delights wasn’t just about food—it was about connecting on a deeper, more human level. 🍷✨
In my keynote, I shared the secret to real change in the workplace: connection from the neck down. True diversity and inclusion don’t happen from policies or top-down initiatives alone. They start with you—with how we connect to ourselves and then extend that connection to others. When we lead with empathy, vulnerability, and a commitment to well-being, we don’t just change workplace culture, we transform it.
As an international keynote speaker, I’m passionate about using connection and well-being to drive meaningful, lasting change in organisations . When people feel seen, heard, and valued from the inside out, that’s when workplaces truly thrive. And we show you how to make this actionable in workplaces.
A massive thank you to the brilliant panelists and the entire team at Plushly Plated and Melanin In The Boardroom for hosting such a powerful event. This is just the beginning, and I’m excited to see how we continue to evolve the DE&I conversation—together.
Here’s to building workplaces where diversity, inclusion, and connection aren’t just buzzwords—they’re lived experiences. 🙌🏽
