Find out why Black Lives Matter, meet Simeon Quarrie

"What is really important, is that those who are in a position of privilege start to recognise that they are in a position of privilege and that they start to use that privilege to assist and help and support." Simeon Quarrie, Founder & CEO, VIVIDA 

It was a great honour chatting to Simeon yesterday about why #blacklivesmatter and what we can all do to start the conversation and take action.

In this interview Simeon elegantly shares his own story and struggles with racism. He goes so far to say that racism is bullying and shared some of his key insights and learnings from reading my book ROAR! How to Tame the Bully Inside and Out 

I won’t lie, I was nervous about this interview. Not a comfortable conversation, but necessary. As a white South African female who grew up in the Apartheid years - Nelson Mandela became our president when I was a teenager - I am all too aware that white privilege is real. And the guilt and shame that comes with it are real too...

Please join the conversation. If COVID-19 taught us anything is that we are all in this together. We are stronger together. We rise by lifting others. #ChooseKindness
