to advance your work
Structured sessions. "A-ha" moments.

Time to ground + reflect (3m journaling sessions at the start).
-
Confidentiality (choose to only share your first name, not your last or company).
-
Full-on race/orientation diversity (you won't be "the only one").
-
Equitable, liberatory discussion facilitation (so that no one dominates).
-
Growth-minded accountability (we are all learning).
-
Life-long industry connections who are rooting for you.
-
Rare feedback so you can be sure you're doing the right things.
Why I started this organization - and program:
Like so many of us doing this work, I go back and forth between "am I making an impact?" and seeing my work truly improve things for women and other marginalized people.
What's truly keeps me going is having close friends in the industry. Where we share tactics and truths. Push each other's thinking. Hop on zoom to rant when things are frustrating. Toast each others' wins. Forward each other the latest research with our most flippant and silly thoughts.
I started this program so that my clients and industry colleagues would have a similarly nourishing community. I bring wisdom from HR, academia, consulting, and tech founding in industries from tech to healthcare and government.
I believe that together, arm in arm as a movement - not a competition, we can end bias in the workplace. And maybe even the world.
Let's do this.
Femily (she/they)
+ "Silicon Valley's Gender/Inclusion Advisor"
We vow to stop...
...waiting for leaders' "hearts and minds" to change (it's time for policy change and clear, heavy-hitting accountability),
...initiatives that only focus on gender at the expense of race, orientation, and other critical (intersectional) identities,
...just celebrating diversity instead of dismantling power structures (like white supremacy, patriarchy, cishet privilege...).
-
All genders. All pronouns cherished (or none).
-
All job categories - from leaders who are often "the only one in the room" to rising stars who are passionate advocates. Our dynamic mix helps us consider complex issues from many angles.
-
Plus inclusion consultants. Doing this work in isolation leads to burnout and self-doubt. You deserve peer thought partners who "get it" and who help you stretch your thinking.
-
Busy people. No homework. Just infuse the learnings into what you're already doing.
-
Introverts. No calling on you; just be you.
