In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more —said he couldn’t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave. This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

It's impossible to please everyone. The question is whether you're disappointing the right people. Part of setting healthy boundaries is deciding who you're willing to let down.

Glad to see not all US companies are folding DEI plans. Unconscious bias is still real and many management decisions are impacted by it. So having checks and balances to mitigate against this bias is the only way to have balanced workforces that are fair to all employees.

I know a lot about how we tick - simply because I’ve always been curious - that doesn’t mean I know it all or have mastered it all. Not at all. The more you know the more you realise the most powerful statement is “I don’t know” If we haven’t got it figured out - that’s ok - just be present

It’s like buckling your seatbelt first so that you can be there for other people. If you don’t take care of yourself first you just can’t be in a position to help others fully #loveistheanswer #loveyourselfmore #beyourownbestfriend

Happy new year. 🎉 If your New Year’s resolution fades after a few days, don’t write off the rest of the year. Start again. Some challenges are fought every day. Use a journal to celebrate the small wins. Writing down the wins helps you see the progress you’ve made. #mentalhealth
