This quote really hit home for me because why did I have to start a whole Black & immigrant women led and staffed consulting company to finally feel like I could breathe at work? And now Iām knee deep in founder speak & venture capital pitches. š I wish people cared more about our ouches so we can exist in already created spaces rather than constantly carving out our own lane.
Itās painful for an ouch to not be believed. Iāve learned to move on from those spaces. Where Iām not affirmed, Iām not protected. Iām not safe.
