#062: Real Talk with Terri Donohue - Transformation DEI Coach

“Inclusion is an action before you build diversity.” - Terri Donohue This Real Talk explores the importance of self-actualizing, inclusion and self-love. It was a privilege hosting Terri Donohue on this episode. Terri is an Emmy-nominated makeup artist turned Life Coach for women, and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Coach for organizations. Her work revolves around helping clients grow in their power, transform their inner strength, and have healthier engaging relationships. Terry highlights the continual process of self-actualizing, and how our growth never truly has an endpoint. She also clarifies the beauty of purpose: it’s not necessarily a grandiose calling you cling to, it’s an energy you ebb and flow in to grow into your highest self. Terri’s journey from makeup artist to an equity coach was intuitive, and was inspired by her work as the governor of the television academy, where she created diverse categories and bylaws for the Emmys. Her goal has been to center underrepresented groups to bring a positive transformation in company culture and to empower people to become their best selves. I loved Terri’s insight into Diversity, Equity and Inclusion; how diversity encompasses so much more than race – it includes an array of backgrounds, cultures, feelings, thoughts and differences that ultimately lead to a stronger, more cohesive group. By exposing ourselves to diverse viewpoints, we expand our knowledge of not just other people, but our unique identities as well. I’d love to know what your favorite takeaway from this Real Talk is!
