Last Week, comments by Frank Hester, a long term Millionaire Tory Donor surfaced in which he called for Diane Abbot MP to be shot and stated that seeing her on television, made him want to hate all Black Women. We, along with many others, were infuriated by his comments but also deeply hurt that Frank Hester’s views are all too common and that this episode is not a new experience or a “one off” occurrence for us as Black Women.
In this episode, Chan and Nats sit down to talk about how these comments about Diane Abbott MP, the first black woman to be elected as a member of parliament in 1986, have impacted us and how we move forward when we are dealing with Frank Hesters in our working environment. We stand by Diane Abbott MP and all other Black Women that face racism in the workplace and in their daily lives and provide support for each other when figuring out how to continuing working and showing up as our authentic selves in light of such regular occurrences.

When it comes to diversity and inclusion roles, are we really seeing progress? Or is this just another corporate pageant? This episode of Black Women Working Podcast brings these hard-hitting questions to the fore, spurred by the startling news that four major companies have ousted their black, female chief diversity officers. We examine the effectiveness of these roles in fostering sincere change, and address the concerning high attrition rate amongst diversity professionals. Engaging with the turbulent journey of black professionals in workplaces, we discuss the pressing need for accountability over racist behavior, and the urgent call for a redefinition of professionalism and standards to comprehensively embrace diversity and inclusion.

Are you a rat on the wheel who needs a break? Need something that makes your existence fulfilling outside of your employment? You are not in solo company. The BWW team talk about how finding and developing pursuits outside of our work have enriched and expanded us, and how sometimes that has fed into our professional work. We know it’s not easy - the older we get, the more “Adulting” puts it’s hard hand on our shoulder, and the “pressure is getting worser”. But also can we discuss how finding your passion doesn't mean you need to turn it into a business? Sometimes just do things for enjoyment and personal nourishment, nothing else. Don’t let the hustle/boss babe culture that prevails on social media pressure you to make draining decisions. Heather Smalls sang, “What have you done today to make you feel proud?” - maybe that’s where it starts. Asking yourself that every day.

What is Divine Femininity? Are people just parroting what they’ve heard, or do they actually know? Natalie leads the charge in this episode as a vocally skeptical Tols and an open-minded Chantelle, dig deeper into an old concept that has taken the interwebs by storm of late. We go back to the founding basics, how that could translate in the workplace, and we give our free and unfiltered thoughts on what part divine femininity has had or will have to play in our lives or careers. This is a good one!
