In this conversation with Sope Agbelusi, Founder of MindsetShift, Aggie speaks about the origins of her commitment to promoting inclusivity and connecting to her personal mission to spread love and light in the world. From the childhood experience of playground discrimination that first sparked her commitment to helping others to feel like they belong, Aggie reflects on an inner-knowing and faith that shielded her from absorbing anti-Black messaging while growing up as a young Black person in the UK, paying that sense of self-love forward by intentionally encouraging her daughters to love and express themselves.
Aggie and Sope look at the powerful foundational role of love and compassion in building healthy, thriving workplaces; prioritising the person behind the role, Aggie’s shares how her own self-work journey feeds into her ability to connect with the individuals and teams she works with – expanding the conversation around leadership to show how clarity, accountability and difficult conversations can all be based in love, Aggie lays out how high performance and professionalism are strengthened by care and understanding.
