That’s a wrap on Day 1 and there’s only 1 thing to say: WOW. The gems that were dropped 💎 The wisdom that was shared 🧠 The TALENT on display❗️We are Here 👏 for 👏 it.

🧵a thread 🧵
TREAT YOURSELF RIGHT
When @MsPackyetti said “True self care is curating a life from which you do not have to constantly escape,” we felt that. Surround yourself with the people and the things and the LIFE that lifts you up, not wears you down.
BREAK BREAD TOGETHER
“Diversity brings them to the table. Inclusion allows them to dine at it.” like always, @BishopJakes was preaching the truth. It’s not enough to hire diverse talent, let them eat! Share opportunity! And yes, literally break bread with them.
13 PERCENT WON’T DO
Speaking of hiring diverse talent, today we all learned that hiring according to demographics isn’t good enough. Communities need at least 30% representation to be vocal and empowered. AT LEAST.
BE TRUE TO YOU
@ceboli put it best. “Do NOT let people tell you that your strength is your weakness.” CHILLS. What makes you unique is what makes you valuable. Use it!
PEOPLE AREN'T PROPS
“I am not inspirational just for existing with my disability.” @anjalifp 👏👏👏 You know what is inspirational, though? Those medals🥇🥉🥉
REACH BACK
”Wherever you are in your career, there is always someone that can use your guidance” @TomLlamasABC
"It's our responsibility to make sure if you're the first, you're not the last. @MsPackyetti
