Witnessing the tragic murder of George Floyd compelled me to take action and speak up, realizing that it could have easily been someone from my own family. As a nurse leader, I've faced numerous challenges in the healthcare industry, often being in the minority. Throughout my career, I've learned the immense power of stories in shaping our lives and fostering connections.In this inspiring talk, I encourage you to tap into the strength of your own narrative and use it as a tool for connection and transformation. I'll be candid about my frustration with remaining silent for years, witnessing injustice and degradation without the courage to speak out. However, I discovered that stories have the incredible ability to resonate and impact those they are shared with, empowering us to take action.I'll share personal experiences of facing racism and insensitivity in the workplace, and how those events led me to create the "aware strategy" to address prejudices head-on. Despite the pain and challenges, I've found gratitude in responding to my moment and working towards a better future.Together, we'll explore the importance of acknowledging racial injustice in healthcare and the significance of listening to others' experiences to gain perspective and address our own biases. I'll share stories that will help allies understand and navigate these difficult conversations, and how finding our voices can lead to healing and resilience.Join me as I reveal four empowering mindset shifts that will help you tackle racism and achieve your goals with strength and determination.
