Manage episode 447377257 series 3461746
How far have we actually come on the road to creating a world of greater diversity, equity, and inclusion? Sometimes, it can be difficult to tell if we are making any progress at all, while other times, we see glimmers of hope that might be moving us, little by little, in the right direction. Through her own lived experiences of racism and discrimination, today’s guest has made it her mission to teach people how to build relationships that foster greater inclusion everywhere. This week on Journeys Through Change, my guest Marlene Godsey and I are talking about her mission to educate others on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Marlene Godsey is an award-winning professional dedicated to empowering public and private sector employees, businesses, and organizations to thrive in culturally diverse landscapes. She has spent the last decade in public service as an arts and culture specialist with a strong focus on serving underrepresented communities. Through her wealth of experience and her “Navigating Cultural Connections Training Program,” Marlene teaches professionals how to adapt, navigate, and forge successful relationships and programs with diverse communities.
In this episode, Marlene and I discuss:
- The stark contrast between the community Marlene and her family are part of now and the communities she has lived in the past.
- How she used her lived experiences to create a program that helps professionals adapt their business practices to be more inclusive and master the art of relationships.
- Advice for people who want to learn more about different cultures but don’t necessarily know where to begin.
Remember, change is uncomfortable. Making mistakes and embracing this discomfort is part of the process required to learn and grow.
Change is inevitable. That’s why I designed the Day by Daybook®, a guided journal to help you face the discomfort of those shifts in life that are pushing you to that next level of growth and learning. Get your Day by Daybook® here.
