The Guilty Privilege Podcast is produced by EPYC Media Network
I am a professional speaker, award-winning inclusion strategist, certified coach, and author of two books, Allies and Advocates, (Wiley, 2020) and Say More About That (Wiley, 2022). I recently delivered a TED Talk sharing 3 Steps to Better Connect with Your Fellow Humans, and I host a bi-weekly podcast called Guilty Privilege.
Formerly a Diversity Strategist at Walmart Stores, Inc., I founded Cabral Co., an equity and inclusive leadership focused consulting firm, to help organizations ignite behavior shifts that create inclusive workplace cultures.
Passionate about developing the next generation of decision-makers, I also support a myriad of non-profit organizations committed to promoting equitable diverse representation. I am the chair of Brown Girls Do, an organization that empowers women and girls in the arts across the globe.
I teach and speak on a variety of inclusion, culture and social justice topics. Through my work, I have been featured on television and in both print and digital media. In my free time, write articles focused on inclusion, culture, equity and working-class life.
