🌈 Reframing DEI, and give practical tools on how to confront difficult DEI situations such as verbal assault against you as a diverse person,

🌈 How to pause and reflect in a conflict to bring about change, love, and healing,

🌈 Accountability and responsibility for people to listen to one another and to recognize their actions/words,

🌈 More TOOLS to facilitate difficult conversations around race and queerness!

Shannon Wong Lerner, Ph.D., Communication Coach / Consultant, Founder of Wong Lerner Coaching:

As a gay biracial Asian coach / consultant, I meet you from your unique starting place to better support you as women, BIPOC, WOC, non-native English speakers, people with disabilities, allies, & LGBTQIA+ talent. I use a whole-person, holistic method that considers WHO you are, WHERE you come from, and HOW you sound as a communicator. So you don't sound like a version of someone else. But you sound like a better version of yourself. I value life-work balance to support clients to work toward their authenticity, improved health, and well-being alongside their goals.

My love of culture, creativity, and social issues has led me to help others become thought leaders. I enjoy hosting or co-hosting the tutorials and podcasts:

Queer Home Meditation, eFEMeral: Voice Matters, and The Intersection: Diverse Folx Converse.
