5 Things / how it's done

Thanks so much to the many of you who completed the 5 Things survey last week! The feedback was super useful -- and I also felt very appreciated -- so thank you! Many of you also wanted to learn more about being a part of the release of my new book Inclusive 360, which is kind of like a much bigger version of 5 Things. Registration is open for a Zoom meeting I'm hosting on Wednesday for anyone who wants to learn more about why this book matters, and learn how you can help.

This week I learned that Amazon Studios has a new commitment to include one speaking character with a disability, one from the LGBTQ+ community as well as three characters from other underrepresented groups in each production.

Additionally, they're proactively seeking content from creators from those groups as a way to ensure authenticity and increase supplier diversity. This matters because it demonstrates a holistic approach to DEI -- increasing representation of and expanding access to underrepresented groups. The result will be productions that not only reflect the diversity of our culture but also lead to an increase in income for people from those groups.

I love this! That's Inclusive 360 in action!

Here are some other good vibes I found this week:
