On this episode of The Native Experience, we welcome Lisa Tribuzio, Co-Create Facilitator with LEXIGO and also Manager at Lotus Consulting.

In our conversation, we delve into the evolving landscape of DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion), the challenges faced, and the political undertones surrounding diversity. We explore the importance of personal backgrounds and stories in understanding and promoting diversity and inclusivity, and Lisa shares her own journey of challenging biases and prejudices through travel and education.

We also discuss the need for self-awareness, and how essential it is, when it comes to understanding our own backgrounds and being able to foster respect and cultural awareness. We also talk about the significance of storytelling in increasing visibility and representation.

Lisa's passion for promoting cultural diversity and advocating for the rights of people from diverse backgrounds is very inspiring. We hope our conversation will help you to provide an even greater native experience in your own personal and professional influence!
