How should non-Indigenous people carry Truth and Reconciliation into the rest of the year?
It’s going to take time and commitment to follow the path of reckoning with our pasts as we move forward with building relationships that foster reconciliation. After some self reflection, a good starting point is to reflect on the principles of reconciliation and how they apply to your workplace and community.
On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with guest Janine Manning, an Indigenous Consultant, Abundance Advocate, Philanthropic Leader, and the Founder and Principal Consultant of Janine Manning Consulting. Their conversation touches on what we can do to carry the intentions and actions of Truth and Reconciliation beyond Orange Shirt Day and throughout the entire year, including how to support Indigenous colleagues and employees.

Moving Beyond the Dos and Don’ts of Inclusive Language | Dr. Suzanne Wertheim
How can we learn to use inclusive language at work?
Most of our language is produced on autopilot – we’re so busy thinking about what we want to get across that we often lose sight of how we’re phrasing it. Dr. Wertheim’s six principles of inclusive language offers a positive framework to help people mindfully and confidently choose inclusive language in any context. Instead of relying on dos and don’ts, Dr. Wertheim asks us to consider the “why” of our choices so that we can adjust as needed and openly discuss our word choices.
On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with guest Dr. Suzanne Wertheim, a linguistic anthropologist whose focus is the intersection of language, identity, and power. She is also the author of the newly released book _The Inclusive Language Field Guide._ They discuss the powerful role of language in inclusion and highlight the need for engaging each other with empathy, respect, and humility. They also explore how to respond with our “why” when inclusive word choices are contested or critiqued.
