Ready to start really LIVING your values...
instead of just wondering how you can help make change?
Create a plan to become an Active Ally and start making a real impact with your business.
Active Ally
[ak-tiv al-ahy]
noun, plural ac·tive al·lies.
A person, group, or nation that is associated with another or others for some common cause or purpose and is engaged in action for that cause.
DE&I
[d e and i]
noun
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. The efforts taken to create a more welcoming environment for people of less-privileged identities.
Social Justice
[ soh-shuhl juhs-tis ]
noun
Fair treatment of all people in a society, including respect for the rights of minorities and equitable distribution of resources among members of a community.
In the past five years, these questions have been coming up more and more:
“I want to help, but what do I need to do?”
“How can I be a part of the change?”
“What do I need to do to become a better Ally?”
With every movement, protest, and whistle blown we become more and more aware that we all have a personal responsibility in shaping our current and future generations.
We’ve witnessed repression and hate and have heard the call to stand up for values of diversity, equity, and inclusivity -
BUT, this is not something that we’ve been taught how to do.
- We didn’t have DE&I in Entrepreneurship 101.
- We didn’t have representation showing us how to do this.
- And we’ve seen so many people shamed around saying the wrong thing, that sometimes we’re scared to ask the questions we need to ask to be a better Ally.
Our biases, education shame culture, and fear of saying the wrong thing too often hold us back from participating in social justice change - let alone LEADING that change!
It's time for our brands to embody our values and create real change.
It’s time to overcome the blocks keeping us from standing up and amplify social justice by joining a safe space for exploring and developing our Active Allyship.
- No shaming your from not knowing yet what you don't know.
- No putting you down before lifting you up.
- No "Google it on your own"s or refusing questions.
This is why I'm committed to putting more
It’s not enough anymore to
make a disconnected post of support,
or give a donation,
or just read the books and
then throw something on your site about equality...
while really wishing you could be DOING something that makes a bigger impact.
We’re shifting focus to improving our corner of the world and fostering a diverse community, putting empathy back into social justice and doing our part as online entrepreneurs to make a difference.
Woah, I feel like you speaking directly to me >I’m Lekeshia Angelique. Army Veteran, Mom, Coach, Taco Aficionado, and creator of safe spaces to educate folx. The key to change is knowledge and empathy. It is important to me to create a culture of knowledge, as the more knowledgeable we are of one another’s experiences, the more likely it is that we will take the steps to effect change.
While working for over 20 years for the U.S Army and the Federal Government, I have taken many different paths that have led me to where I am today.
Most often, I have been the only Black woman in powerful meetings. I’ve had to learn not only to have a seat at the table but a voice while there.
Time and again, I saw the need to empower more women in leadership roles and the massive need to fill the gaps in businesses around diversity, equity, and inclusion education.
My unique educational background has also led me (unknowingly) to be in the position I am in today, owning my own business doing exactly what I love. I completed a year under the mentorship of the Diversity and Inclusion Executive at Colgate, where I gained valuable lessons and practical, hands-on experience in a large corporate setting.
This path has given me the confidence to move away from corporate life where, after a time, I found myself miserable. It has taught me about failure, empathy, mentoring, and the ability to meet people where they’re at without judgement.
My mission is to empower not just Black women but every human to have a powerful voice and an equitable seat at any table they desire to be seated at.

Decide you’re an Active Ally, now!
>> PROGRAM BEGINS APRIL 4, 2022 <<
You don’t know what you don’t know, and by the time it happens it’s too late.
We’ve all seen that things can go from successful to disastrous with diversity missteps.
Avoid going it alone and letting fear keep your from Being an Active Ally.
Become an Ally >You have questions, we have answers.
Is this for me? Because I’m not an activist, but I also don’t like what I’m seeing and want to do something about it.
What types of industries is this program for? I’ve not seen much happening in mine.
I hate to admit this, but my family is racist. How do I do this work and be vocal without causing problems?
Is this actually going to do anything to make a real impact? I’m just one person and there are tons of people out there who are going to keep being hateful.
I’m scared that even with this help, I still will be too afraid to step up. Any advice?
I see stories about people losing clients over equality issues, am I going to lose clients because of this?
I want to help you infuse inclusive messaging and processes into current business practices so you can find greater success and make a REAL impact in your business community.
If you remember anything, remember that hindsight is 20/20.
How do you want to look back at this moment?
Do you want to remember:
“OMG, YES! This was the moment I made a change and became an Ally and social justice leader!”
OR
"I wish I would've taken a stand, learned what it meant to live my values, and focused on social justice."
Become a part of the inclusivity movement, and learn how to be a true Active Ally in your business!
