REPRESENTED with Annie Gichuru
Welcome to REPRESENTED, the podcast.
This is your weekly dose of inspiration that’ll support you to build a racially inclusive online business without letting the fear of getting it wrong get in the way. These episodes will provide insights, strategies, and discussions that break down barriers and empower you to navigate the racial equity landscape.
I’m Annie Gichuru, your host as well as a Racial Equity Coach who supports online business owners such as coaches, course creators, membership owners and group program facilitators. It’s my calling in nature and ability to break-down complex and often uncomfortable conversations around race that has seen me teach over 100 online business owners to be more racially inclusive through my online program REPRESENTED.
Be sure to subscribe, rate and review so this podcast can reach more online business owners and begin to not only normalise racial inclusion in the online coaching space but see us actively shift our perspectives.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been sitting with the feedback I received after Episode 93 on Dehumanising Language and it has confirmed something I think many of us are feeling. These are morally compromised times and when power is held without accountability, it affects the way people speak, the way institutions move and the way communities hold one another.
In today’s episode, I’m offering a wider lens.
I share a personal story from my childhood in Kenya about Wangari Maathai and why her leadership still matters now, especially in times where the ground feels unstable. I also share research that helps explain why those closest to instability often develop a sharper ability to read patterns early. I also honour a select number of women of colour whose voices have shaped my thinking through this podcast.
This is a thoughtful conversation about discernment, leadership literacy and the question we all need to ask ourselves in seasons like this.
