Today, we celebrate the strides made toward gender equality and honor the women who paved the way for our rights and opportunities. But while we acknowledge these victories, it's crucial to recognize that the journey is far from over. True equality isn't just about acknowledging history—it's about creating a future where every woman has the opportunity to lead, innovate, and thrive. This means advocating for equity in the workplace, ensuring diverse voices are heard, and embedding anti-oppressive practices into our business strategies. Together, we can build a world where every woman’s potential is fully realized. #SustainableBusiness #SocialEnterprise #SocialImpact #Ethics #Values

What's your favorite joke? This one made me chuckle...

A benefit report is a critical document to show authenticity and actual accomplishments and challenges from data gathered throughout the year. And it's important to share and have available not only to clients and customers, but stakeholders, potential employees, industry leaders, suppliers, and current employees. A benefit report is not just a document, it's a summary touch point, an inspiration, a challenge, and a strong base for engaging with key people internally and externally.

Today is Book Lovers Day! I just finished Blowout by Rachel Maddow, and Flight Paths by Rebecca Heisman... and Trudi Lebron's Antiracist Business Book has been a favorite of mine since it's release in 2022.

On Saturday, my husband and I volunteered with thousands of other people for the PDX (Portland Airport) new terminal Dress Rehearsal, before the grand opening. We were given scripts and acted as passengers: checking our bags, going through security, boarding the plane - and every step in between. When our volunteer shift was complete they said: "Locals made PDX the local-est airport yet. We teamed up with local builders, makers, and forest caretakers. We made space for more local spots. We added a little PNW magic. Then we tested the space with you - our community, friends, and family. Thank you for helping make our airport the best place to come home to." The new airport design inspires, and the focus on local businesses is encouraging for our local economy. The Dress Rehearsal was well done... From a personal perspective, it felt very thoughtful. From a business perspective, it felt smart and strategic. It left me thinking about our new offer, the Mighty Impacts Continuum... we'll be having our "dress rehearsal" soon. Stay tuned!

August is Intersectionality Awareness Month. What is intersectionality? Intersectionality recognizes that individuals’ identities and experiences are shaped by multiple factors (such as race, gender, sexuality, and class) that intersect to create unique perspectives and challenges. Understanding intersectionality is key to creating truly inclusive spaces where all voices are heard and valued. By acknowledging the diverse and interconnected nature of our identities, we can better support one another and foster a more equitable world. 🌍 💕
