On this week’s GoalChat we celebrated Pride Month with Diana Greshtchuk, Monique Impagliazzo, and Duncan MacLeod. All three are members of the LGBTQ+ community, advocates, entrepreneurs, and proud multi-hyphenates. CPA Diana is founder/CEO Fan Your Flame Financial Literacy and an investor, Monique Impagliazzo is director/writer/producer, Manifesting Productions, and Duncan MacLeod, author and joint CEO, Books That Save Lives.
We talked about Pride, philanthropy, visibility, mental health, and allies, as well as the importance of showing up as your authentic self and “opening the door” for others throughout your journey.
What Pride Means to Them
- Diana: This year, embracing my ability to be vulnerable and visible
- Monique: Being authentically who you are and loving who you are – everyone else will fall in line
- Duncan: Being out and gay
How Allies Can Be Supportive
- Diana: Show up, use your voice, help members of the LGBTQ+ community feel safe
- Monique: Support your friends, neighbors, communities; love us, and please vote
- Duncan: Feel comfortable around me, ask questions
