This week’s episode of The Baggage Reclaim Sessions is on a topic that, in a way, I’d prefer not to be talking about. At the same time, though, I value the opportunity to do so. After sharing a video on Instagram where I explained how I’m feeling during this current climate of amplified conversations about racism, I wanted to expand on this topic for the podcast. At the heart of everything I talk about in this episode is the importance of representing who we are through our values.
When we talk about things we claim are important but we don’t follow through, it’s like washing our front but not our back.
I also share ideas for individuals, influencers, brands and companies on how to follow through so that this is more than a ‘moment’.

I’ve been running Baggage Reclaim since September 2005, and I’ve spent many thousands of hours writing this labour of love. The site has been ad-free the entire time, and it costs hundreds of pounds a month to run it on my own. If what I share here has helped you and you’re in a position to do so, I would love if you could make a donation. Your support is so very much appreciated! Thank you.
