Episode 11: We Have To Move Out To Move Up

Olumide Akerewusi Season 1 Episode 11

The Giving Black Conference, is scheduled for August 10, 2023, at 9:30am-11:30am (EST).  The theme of this year's conference is, Advancing Belonging. It's a subject that underpins Black philanthropy and affects those who seek to create social impact. 
   
On this episode of The Giving Black Podcast, we introduce an open mic for the first time. I invite The Giving Black Virtual Conference speakers to pop-in and share a few thoughts about belonging. I am joined by four guests.

As me and my guests share our perspectives, the conversation gets deep into our personal experiences.  Before long, Queen Jade, Vibhuti, Muthoni, Nneka and I realize that our discussions are expressions of hope over adversity. On the subject of career progression, there's one thing that we all know and have experienced; "We ave to move out to move up!". Ultimately, if belonging alludes us in the main, there is a powerful solution. Listen to this episode to find out more.
