To be honest, I’m not exactly sure what this site will become. I just know that there’s STILL a lot of work to do and that’s not by some of us, it’s by all of us. There’s a lot of hurt, pain and frustration happening in the world. There’s also reasons to feel hopeful and excited about what is to come. There’s so many posts and articles that I’ve come across through social media, blog posts, podcasts, videos and more that I guess this will start out as a way to showcase some of those.
I’ve thought about launching a podcast, as I have a daily business podcast already–the I AM CEO podcast and know that world better than some but I’m just not sure. For now, this will be a way to compile many of the ways in which we need to do more work–racial inequality, prejudice, gender gaps, systemic racism, cultural bias, sexual orientation and so many more things.
As I said on Instagram, the work that is needed will manifest itself in different ways–podcasts, services, social media posts, voter registration, conversations, designs, resources, protesting, donations, giving speeches, reading, writing and I believe that there’s not going to be one thing that pushes everything forward. It’s going to be the collective work, gifts and talents from all of us to make that happen. So, I ultimately hope that this just highlights some of what can be done and what people are doing.
I’ve always felt hope in work because it means that we’re trying. It might not be perfect but faith without works is dead. So I say let’s roll up our sleeves and start to do the things that will make the world a better place–TODAY.
This is my imperfect action towards a better world, hopefully it inspires you, it excites you or sparks you towards finding and DOING the work that you can do.
