When I started this podcast it was always my vision to share the voices of amazing humans who I’ve been fortunate to learn from…
So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content podcast I’m talking to one of my all-time favourite teachers – Annie Gichuru.
Let me officially introduce you to Annie
Annie is the founder of Uplifting Studios, a platform dedicated to supporting online business owners to build culturally & racially diverse, inclusive and equitable businesses.
Annie has become a leading Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) coach & consultant for online entrepreneurs, most notable of which is her partnership with The Beautiful You Coaching Academy, where she supports trainees and coaches.
She is deeply passionate about representation through a racial justice lens, and combines her experience as an internationally certified life coach, her love of storytelling, and her extensive career as a Human Resource specialist to deliver REPRESENTED – a transformational online program, which has been described as ‘a must for all business owners who are ready to build a culturally and racially diverse, inclusive and equitable business’.
I completed the last round of Represented and it was such a powerful container to be part of.
Following the death of George Floyd it became really clear to me that there were some real blind spots in both my life and business and that I needed to make changes and do the work.
And I knew that Annie was the person I wanted to learn and unlearn alongside of.
Annie’s grace, gentle spirit and passion for a racially equitable world is setting her apart in the coaching and personal development industry as a compassionate educator with an incredible space holding ability.
Annie has called Australia home for more than 20 years, having relocated from Kenya as an international student. She now lives in New South Wales with her husband and 2 young children.
In today’s episode Annie & I chat about why representation matters and how you as an online business owner can create a diverse, equitable and inclusive business.
This is such an important conversation that ALL business owners need to hear.
