    How to use LGBTQ+ inclusive language and how to show your allyship with Hank Paul

    How to use LGBTQ+ inclusive language and how to show your allyship with Hank Paul

    As a wordsmith, I am deeply fascinated by how the delicate choices of language and words evoke different means and emotions in a reader. When it comes to writing, and also in how we approach writing at Wordfetti, inclusivity in our language is something we've been striving to learn more and more about. This is why I'm thrilled to bring on guest Hank Paul, who is a Queer Inclusion Strategist to share more about this topic.

     

    In this episode, we dive into:

    • Why brands should embrace LGBTQ+ inclusive language
    • The most common myths and misconceptions about LGBTQ+ allyship in business
    • What to do when you make a mistake
    • The difference between performative allyship and authentic allyship

    Behind the scenes of how I pivoted and relaunched an offer that was no longer working

    Behind the scenes of how I pivoted and relaunched an offer that was no longer working

    At the end of July this year, I launched (relaunched) our dedicated all-in-one content marketing membership: The Wordfetti Club. And it was a WILD success, with us x2 our initial goal of 100 members, to hitting 209 members for our first launch! In this episode (where I was a guest on my biz bestie Steph Taylor's podcast Imperfect Action), I dive into:

    • the behind the curtain view of what it actually took to launch this offer;
    • how it felt different to any other launches I have had (as I was travelling and launching at the same time); and
    • how I pivoted an offer that was no longer working.
