In this episode I talk about being your sister’s keeper, supporting our fellow sister’s of color as they climb the corporate ladder. I share a personal story as well as some tips and advice. Referencing the end of chapter 12 of my book “Our Leadership Journey: Shared Stories Lessons and Advice. I share the three lessons and advice I provide.
· Lesson 1. Be to others who you would want someone to be for you. Show up for someone, and someone will show up for you.
· Lesson 2. The only person you should be competing with is yourself. “Nothing that is for you can be taken from you.” -Unknown
· Lesson 3. Being accountable for your sister helps you be accountable to yourself.
My advice…
There are too many people in the world who are against us, so we need to stop being against each other. Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t matter what you do, you will always have detractors. Sometimes those detractors will be your own sister. What you can do is choose not to be a detractor for anyone. Pay it forward, offer your support, lift as you climb, and help other women of color win the way that you are.
How are you being your sister’s keepter?
