If we want to be inclusive in our business we must understand gender identity and the importance of using pronouns for people in the LGBTQIA+ community. Understanding and caring about these things is at the heart of creating safe, inclusive and welcoming spaces for everyone. Yet many people struggle to know how to create environments where all genders and people who use different pronouns feel accepted and included. To help you with this I’m giving you 10 action steps that w...
Before I even knew I was gay I experienced homophobia. Both within myself (internalised homophobia) and from the outside world. Todays solo podcast episode is a journey through my own personal experiences of what it’s like being a gay woman who came out at 30, over two decades ago. I’m sharing my story of denying and repressing my sexuality for a very long time and the struggles I had to accept that I was gay, as well as some of the homophobia I've experienced against me.&nb...
This weeks podcast episode is a solo one from me about a topic that I’m extremely passionate about! Those of you who have been listening to the podcast from the beginning may remember that I’ve spoken about allies and allyship before in Episode 2 when I talk about the top 10 things you can do to be a great ally. Today I am taking LGBTQ+ allyship to whole different level! The way I like to look at allyship is as though it’s a journey, a spectrum that’s broken down into 3 steps with each step b...

Are things really getting better when it comes to LGBTQ+ inclusion and equality?

In this week's podcast episode I'm talking with Ali Hendry, coach, corporate diversity and inclusion trainer and performance artist. Ali is also a co-host of the Channel 5 TV sho...

It’s been such an honour to dedicate Friday nights to our collective wellbeing and hold space for the queer community and our wonderful allies.

Last week my guest was Amanda Ashy a holistic nutritionist and mindful...

"I never use the term falling in love. I really don't like that, it's like falling where? Falling on your face? Falling on your arse? No. I'm really here for people to walk steadily into love with their eyes wide open, with clarity and a strong foundation." I'm talking with Love Coach Michelle Zaylar about the world of love and relationships (and if you're anything like me help in that department is always welcomed!) We get real about the the challenges of navigating dating and finding love a...
How inclusive is the wellness and coaching industry for LGBTQ+ people? How does being LGBTQ+ and working in wellness or coaching impact us? Do we feel included and equal in our professional industries and in our wellness and coaching networks and communities? Approximately 6% of the UK population is LGBTQ+*. There are circa 1 million people working in the wellness and coaching industries in the UK and yet when you look around there is very little visibility of LGBTQ+ wellness and coaching pro...

I'm sharing research highlights, insights and personal experiences of being LGBTQ+ in the workplace, plus first-hand experiences of some of my wonderful clients and business buddies and why being out at work is never an easy decision to make. Let me make it very clear, this episode is not a "why I think you should be out at work" message. Even though there are many benefits of feeling comfortable and safe to be out at work (which I talk about in other Queerpreneur podcast episodes and i...
