In case you were wondering, doxing people for speaking out is NOT OK. If you're thinking about doing it, don't. https://lnkd.in/gvg2pYhz #ethics #business #FreePalestine

I need your help to put together an "FAQ" of scripts you can use to respond to questions (or challenges) you are hearing about G4za, Pal3stine, or the Isra3li government. These can be friendly or unfriendly questions, as most of us end up in all kinds of strange situations when we are having these conversations. Bring it all here - the difficult, the ugly, the confrontational... I can only help you advocate for P4lest1ne if you tell me what you need. If you don't feel safe leaving a comment, you can DM me. #businesscoaching #speakup #speakout #FAQs Tagging my Shades of Anger collective to help spread the word and get the conversation started.

Call your U.S. Senators to tell them to oppose this additional funding to the Isra3li govt! They could be voting as early as tomorrow, 4/23 ‼️ These are YOUR TAX DOLLARS they want to use to keep k1lling children in Gaz a. Do you want to be complicit in more mass d3aths of children? I don't. If my post about this makes you uncomfortable, interrogate that discomfort. Do you think I'm outspoken, brash, loud-mouthed, disruptive, or not respecting my place in our society? You're right. I'm all of those things. I have zero respect for any systems, cultures or people who are complicit in genoc1de. I will not support it. My question for you is: are YOU ok with using YOUR tax dollars to k1ll children?! Call your Senators. Now.

What do you know about the keffiyeh? Need a recommendation on where to buy one to wear in solidarity with the Palestinian people? Read this post from our Shades of Anger project and, while you're there, subscribe for daily action alerts. https://lnkd.in/eggwT4d9

U.S. folks - call your elected officials! Because we cannot allow 26 BILLION OF OUR HARD-EARNED TAX DOLLARS to be used to fund weapons that will be targeted on children in G4za. For the love of humanity, call your reps NOW NOW NOW! Exercise your right to tell them what you think. Or just do it because this is YOUR money and I dunno what $26 billion U.S. could buy - a skajillion dog biscuits or a gazillion kazoos or bajillions of googly eyes or a couple of ridiculous gold-encased bridges in some hip city - but dear god, demand that YOUR MONEY be used for literally almost anything other than k1lling children. For f*ck sake, even setting this money on fire would be better than funding the murd3r of babies! If my post sounds frantic and unhinged to you, I have to ask: why aren't YOU feeling frantic and unhinged about this?! And yes this is 100% professional content and it belongs on LinkedIn. Because who in the actual f*ck thinks it's OK to be in the business of k1lling babies!

If you haven't subscribed for the "Shades of Anger" action emails yet, I'm literally begging you to. Do it right now. Link in comments. We MUST speak up against atrocities like this: https://lnkd.in/e4wfBUMq There is nothing fun or delightful about this and there's just no other way to say it. We aren't promising you enlightenment, sales skills, how to get rich fast, or any ways to hack your day to be more productive. This is FAR more important than any of that. Collective action is the only way the world - and ourselves - will be liberated from this kind of violent culture. Subscribing to these free email action alerts is the least you and your friends and colleagues can do. It's exceptionally easy and we will not be asking you to pay us for this work. This is an incredibly low-stakes way for you to get in touch with your own humanity, tap into your empathy, and expand your compassion for all humans. Especially for the children. Please, please, please do it for the children. And do it for yourself, too, so that you don't have to bear this pain alone. We're here for you, and we're propping each other up in community, every day. Link in bio to subscribe.

It's Friday and we're not headed into a relaxing weekend. Once again, we are witnessing the Bully Coalition, led by U.S. and Israel, dismiss the value of Palestinian lives. And this Bully Coalition is doubling down, altogether rejecting the human rights of Palestinian people. How can any of us sleep? How can we do business as usual while this Bully Coalition continues to fund the slaught3r of children in Gaza - 15,000 children k1lled in the past 7 months. We must stop defending the bullies.

Want to run a business that disrupts and innovates to create more social justice and equity? Me too. Tired of being encouraged to rely on extractive, exploitative business models? Yeah, me too. I don't talk about it a lot these days because I'm using my voice for liberation causes most of the time instead, but I am a business coach. I have a "buy one, GIFT one" business model, where every full-pay coaching client gifts coaching to a social justice leader who wouldn't otherwise be able to afford coaching. My rates are more affordable than most because I lowered them. Yes I did, and for all the social justice reasons (this is no sales gimmick). With my experience, I could charge a lot more, but I think excellent coaching should be within financial reach of every leader. Anyway. If you need a business coach, reach out. I currently have space for 3 full-pay clients, and then I'll be able to take on 3 more social justice leaders who need coaching for free or at a greatly-reduced rate. Let's make good trouble together. P.S. I'm a white, cis-het woman in the U.S. That means I'm not the right coach for everybody because some folks have had terrible experiences with people like me. Still, I do coach BIPOC/people of the Global Majority, as well as LGBTQIA+ folks. I encourage you to reach out and at least have a first conversation. If I'm not right for you, you can tell me so and I'll receive your decision with respect and gratitude for your self-awareness and honesty. #businesscoaching #socialjustice #businessmodel
