Angela and I start this deeply personal conversation with a story about her company picnic that triggered her own fragility. A pun made into the picnic theme, prompted a trusted friend to tell her: "that's a colonizer joke. It's not your joke to make. Find a different joke". We talk about how much being well-being isn't enough, how all our immersion in all these systems impact our relationship with ourselves, loved ones and our work. Angela describes the deconstruction of her personal and business identity as she continues to confront the pain and violence of colonization. This work is very personal, and different for everyone. Listen to Angela's reflection and have the courage to move forward in your our own decolonizing work. Decolonize Work is a series of conversations with business leaders, educators and change makers about the hidden impact of colonization of how we define and implement "work" and the "workplace". If you are committed to cultivating work ecosystems where humans thrive, and want to personalize these conversations to your company, let's have a coffee chat about the simplest, context specific strategy for your company.
