In recent years, focus on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) has become a critical aspect of social progress and organizational success. To effectively navigate the complex landscape of DEIB work, we at Relational Life Foundation believe it is essential to approach it through a relational lens, fostering authentic connections and building meaningful relationships. To us this means moving slowly and acting with intention. We draw inspiration from the teachings of Brené Brown, a renowned researcher on vulnerability, courage, and human connection, as well as DEIB Specialist and Educator Deran Young, founder of Black Therapists Rock. A certified ‘Dare to Lead’ Facilitator and the driving force behind our DEIB efforts, Deran has worked closely with Brene Brown to develop her organization’s Belonging Statement. This blog explores the importance of relationality in DEIB work and provides practical insights for incorporating it in your personal life, as a therapeutic practitioner, and the communities of which you are part.
