  • Learning to Unhide and Live Authentically

    Living authentically means being able to bring your full self to work. To have the freedom to face challenges, ask for help without fear, and share your experiences to help others.

    When we spend so much time hiding parts of ourselves, we become exhausted and feel lonely and isolated.

    Are we really performing at our best if we have to expend energy to hide pieces of ourselves while at work?

    Ruth shares approaches and action plans to move us forward by owning our differences and creating space for others differences.

    Ready to start the collective journey of acceptance?

  • The C.U.R.E. to Inclusion Workshop

    Ready to have a conversation around Inclusion, but not sure where to start or what that looks like?

    Ruth leads attendees in personal reflection and small group activities that encourages them to explore 4 dimensions of Inclusion.

    • Connection – how do we build attachment and display humanity?
    • Understanding – how do we create safe places for conversations about difference?
    • Representation – how do we ensure that everyone has a seat at the table?
    • Empathy – are we fostering a workplace with allies and ambassadors?

    And how does all of this relate to our human need for belonging?

    This workshop addresses these questions … and more!
