In todays episode I discuss Dr. Claudine Gay’s resignation as Harvard president, and what it represents for black women in the workplace.

Next I discuss the changes to our working environments. Everything we used to know about work has shuffled, reset, and rebooted post-covid 19. People are working remotely and commuting less. There’s been so many layoffs, even for the most skilled workers. Job descriptions are not clear, and it seems like alot of people are generally more toxic work environments than not. Is there any good left out there? How can you navigate all the changes? In this episode I give you some tips and mindsets to consider when it comes to navigating the new post- covid 2.0 corporate/ working environment.

In this episode I discuss all things related to your employee handbook and code of conduct. It is critical to go through your handbook and have a good understanding of your  companies policies. Each company has a different set of rules and regulations that you legally agreed to when you accepted a role. I discuss my personal experiences with employee handbooks, and how to read the terms of your employment, your benefits, code of conduct and more.

On today's episode we are making space for us FIRST GEN's! Wether you  are Ghanaian, Jamaican, Vietnamese, Nigerian, you name it. I feel like a part of our identity and experience as first gens has been swept away into generic generations of "gen -z" or millennial. However, the way we see the world + navigate challenges is very different from our peers. Join in on the convo as we tackle some of the very real experiences we have as first gen's.
