Main Takeaways:
A great way to prepare for a career pivot is to build an emergency fund that would keep you financially covered while you find your next income source.
Just because you don’t fit the stereotype of a position, doesn’t mean you don’t deserve it.
If it’s possible, try and educate people about your diverse background instead of letting their lack of knowledge results in built-up resentment inside you.
How to integrate diversity and inclusion in your business:
Be properly educated about what that really means.
Ensure that your business reflects representation.
Be mindful of your messaging on your social platforms.
Hire inclusion and diversity experts to educate yourself and your team.
Expose yourself to other cultures.
As an educator, try your best to meet your audience where they are.
Never stop investing in your own continued education.
To improve the delivery of your content, learn to pick up on your audiences’ body language.
