Not all women are white women.
I founded @techseowomen 2.5 years ago and one thing I've struggled with over time is ensuring it doesn't run into a community primarily for white women.
Here are some things I do to ensure that doesn't happen 🧵 1) I never run an event or an event cohort that only features white women. In fact, the upcoming #WTSFest features 50% women of colour.

Ramadan is in a week 🕌
A super simple thread for anyone who wants to learn more about it and support their Muslim friends/colleagues who are fasting ⬇️ 1. Ramadan happens once a year and lasts around 30 days
2. We follow the lunar calendar which is why it starts earlier each year (shifts by around 11 days)
3. It's a month for spiritual discipline and it helps us feel grateful for what we have

I usually share these on Mondays but I got so inspired reading this week's @techseowomen #WTSInterview that I had to share it earlier. @aleyda is someone who I have so much respect for and someone who has helped me a lot. A thread with my favourite bits.

If one of your goals this year is to start speaking in industry conferences - here's a few tips by someone who only started last year! 1. Make a list of conferences and meetups you'd love to speak in, ones that inspire you and you'd like to be a part of - note down their speaker pitch deadline/process and add those to your calendar.
