90. How to Use Your White Privilege
This week I'm talking about something that came up powerfully in my group coaching calls last week. A real and tender tension around white privilege.
Some participants shared that they wished they did not have it. Others felt they should hold themselves back so they did not move ahead of people of colour. There was a deep longing for fairness, even if it meant shrinking themselves.
But, denying privilege does not create equity. What creates change is learning how to use it.
In this solo episode, I unpack what it looks like for white online business owners to use their white privilege in ways that genuinely support people of colour. I walk you through practical, grounded examples that apply directly to your coaching, consulting or course-based business. And I share what responsible action can look like in your everyday life.
We look at:
• How to support clients of colour in your programs
• How to use your access, visibility and influence with intention
• What support looks like in your personal world
• Why turning away from privilege keeps inequity in place
If you have ever wondered, “What am I meant to do with the privilege I have?”, this conversation will give you clarity, direction and a sense of purpose.
