5 Things In 15 Minutes: Good Vibes in DEI

In this solo episode, I recap the latest 5 Things (good vibes in DEI) in just 15 minutes. This week I speak about roller derby fighting for inclusion, turning city noise into comfort, breaking the funding bottleneck for diverse founders, and more!

Here are this week's good vibes:

  1. Roller Derby Skates Forward
  2. Turning City Noise into Comfort
  3. Mining Inclusion
  4. Breaking the Funding Bottleneck
  5. ‘The Daily Show’ Roasts Anti-DEI Rollbacks

Good Vibes to Go:

I’m definitely on a standup comedy kick and I particularly enjoy performers who are different from me and can bring me new perspectives. Check out “Lonely Flowers” by Roy Wood Jr. on Hulu or Disney+.

Ramadan starts on Friday. Here are some tips to be culturally aware.
