063 Embracing Pride: Celebrations, Challenges, and Authenticity
Update: 2023-06-14
Description
This month we are campaigning around Pride Month and for our first episode, we had a conversation with Neil Hudson-Basing, senior events and community manager at PinkNews, who shares his advice, insight and experience as a queer man in the LGTBQ+ community during Pride Month.
Neil is an experienced events and project manager with a substantial background in the charity, political, hospitality, voluntary and educational sectors. He is also a content creator, accomplished & energetic event host, chair & moderator. He is community focused, socially aware and passionate about equality, diversity & inclusion.
Together Gabby and Neil covered:
🌈 The difference between Pride and Pride Month
🌈 Why being authentic means embracing all aspects of oneself and why we should encourage vulnerability and foster understanding to build more meaningful connections
🌈 Creating inclusive workplaces for the LGBTQ+ community
🌈 How you can take action against discrimination
🌈 Book recommendations to support the learning and understanding of LGBTQ+ community this pride month
