This was one of the biggest ah-ha moments I've had coming out of a Comm Convo. Anyone who knows me well will tell you that I often have big ideas and then dig in to work really hard and make it happen. No humble-bragging; my point is the opposite. A weakness with my M.O. is that it's easy to get tunnel vision and not appreciate signs of progress and small wins, because I'm always working toward something else. I think this is why change -- when it comes to more important issues like achieving true equity in [fill in the blank with any industry name here] -- seem elusive. Yes, while it's inarguably important to not lose sight of those master goals, we can do our part to create safe spaces for those in our own communities. Especially in our role as communicators in an industry with human health at its center, we are super well-positioned to lead by example. And the ah-ha moment for me specifically was that seemingly small gestures can have real, meaningful impact, and that shouldn't be taken for granted or worse, sacrificed because we're too busy trying to convince other people to do the right thing.
“The people who need the help or the comfort will know that you're safe.” We heard last week from LGBTQ+ advocate and educator Lex Clay, M.S. in our Comm Convo on embracing diversity and allyship that it doesn’t always take a lot to create safe spaces. In those moments when big, sweeping change seems slow and hard, we can still do our part, and we can still make an impact.

Always Just a Call Away! Preparing for a mortgage? Know your options and speak with a loan officer, like me, who will listen and provide options tailored to you and your finances and wishes, then you make the decisions. The worst thing one can do is find a home and then get pre-approved with the risk of finding out you don’t qualify for some minor reason and can’t currently make an offer. 💪💰 Knowing your buying power is the key to finding your dream home. Get pre-approved for your mortgage today and start your house hunt on the right foot. With same-day service, including weekends!. I'm here to help you every step of the way 7 days a week and always take calls after 5 PM. Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances Don't forget to ask me about the FAIRWAY ADVANTAGE, which gives you the highest buying power and loan approval without a property attached. It's the perfect way to start your search with your realtor, knowing you have an underwritten loan approval before you start looking for your next or new home and can close fast! Because you are already fully pre-approved by an underwriter, before finding a home. That is the Fairway Advantage! Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances

Celebrating Pride Month helps LGBTQ+ identifying youth and adults feel safe and welcome within your home, school, Club or community. Plus, creating a safe place where people can be themselves benefits all – when people see others included, they are more likely to feel included, too. Here are some ways to celebrate Pride Month: Sharing Pride Month with Kids: 9 Ways to Celebrate Pride Month (bgca.org)

3 things that I implore you to remember this Pride season. 1. Allyship is wonderful, but it is something earned, not just claimed. If you say that you are an ally, you must back that up with more than words. It must be backed up with actions. 2. Remember that being out is a privilege. To all who are unable to be out for whatever reason, or who choose to remain private about your situations, you are still valid and you still deserve to have pride. This elder-queer loves and supports you. <3 3. Please remember that while it is wonderful and AMAZING to support small and independent queer artists during Pride season and beyond, not everyone has the financial stability and privilege to do so, and purchasing a small trinket from a big box store may be cheaper, easier, and more accessible for some folx and that is OK. Don't shame people for it, because you don't know their experience or what they are going through. Also, those public corporate displays? They often matter to people who cannot be out for their own reasons. So absolutely celebrate independently, responsibly, etc. But have patience and grace for all. Happy Pride, everyone!
🏳️🌈 Pride is more than a month of celebrations and recognition of the LGBTQ+ community. It’s a protest and a fight for equality. It’s collaboration and support across other marginalized communities. It’s for our future and our safety. This Pride season, we continue our mission to create safe and inclusive schools for our LGBTQ+ youth, and we encourage you to join us and Rise Up with Pride. ➡️ Visit glsen.org/pride to learn how you can Rise Up today! . . .

Diverse children’s literature can shape young minds. Through the power of storytelling, they inspire young readers to embrace their own identities, respect others, and create a future where love knows no bounds. Books play a vital role in representing different identities and experiences, allowing young readers to see themselves reflected and learn about the world around them. These exceptional LGBTQ+ children’s books serve as windows to a world of understanding, compassion, and self-discovery. https://bit.ly/3RbXBDx
