Just received a SPAM email from my own 9-year-old-son 😂 #parenting

The Ethical Sellout is at its heart a book about stories and we've made it our mission to share them. Tanisha was a young entrepreneur navigating a discriminatory field. If you were in her situation, would you use a different name to avoid discrimination? #ethicalsellout

For members of marginalized communities, the cost of authenticity can sometimes be too much to pay all the time. When we compromise, we can feel paralyzed by our guilt and shame. It doesn't have to be this way--let's change the status quo. #ethicalsellout amazon.com/Ethical-Sellou…

Many of us have other people in our lives to support besides ourselves. We have children to feed, parents to care for, and other loved ones who depend on us. But we also want meaningful work that creates positive impact in the world. How do you find balance? #ethicalsellout

Ever had to choose between your values and your career? Your ambition and your loved ones? Those of us who work toward a better world are often forced to compromise to get by. Here's how to maintain your integrity throughout the process. #ethicalsellout ideas.bkconnection.com/the-changemake…

It's PUB WEEK for The Ethical Sellout! This week we're sharing Lam's story. Many of us have been in situations where we hesitate to tell our personal stories about hardship and struggle. Where do we mark the line between being ourselves and getting ahead? #ethicalsellout

The book launch of The Ethical Sellout at the Stanford Bookstore was a huge success! We were blown away by the enthusiasm and energy of the packed room, and SOLD OUT every copy of the book. To everyone that showed their support for us, thank you! #ethicalsellout

Sometimes for our safety, health, or survival, we're forced to leave behind our communities, values, or even identities. These situations can be intensely isolating, but happen to more people and more often than we think. We don't have to go through them alone. #ethicalsellout

Just tried on one of those moisturizers designed to be acceptable to men (“BOURBON CEDAR”) and now my hand smells exactly like a hamster cage

Situations that challenge our beliefs, values, and identities can happen anytime and anywhere, and to any of us. Stick by our morals and take any consequence that follows? Or make a tough compromise, even a small one, to get what we want or need? #ethicalsellout

In this article for Porchlight Books, we share a sampling of stories from our book, The Ethical Sellout, and three important things that workplaces can learn from such stories. Give it a read! #ethicalsellout porchlightbooks.com/blog/changethi…

Sometimes the consequences of advocacy can cost us respect, goodwill, or even our jobs. For those of us who care about living our values, when is it appropriate to stay silent? What does it mean to compromise "for the greater good?" #ethicalsellout

Some opportunities only come once in a lifetime. Before we've had time to fully think out our options, we're asked to make a choice with big repercussions further down the line. How do we make the right choice if we have only our gut feeling to draw from? #ethicalsellout

When we're put into a position where staying silent means doing harm, we're forced to make a choice. Choose the status quo and we maintain our stability and status. Come forward and we affirm our identity and community at the cost of our current way of life. #ethicalsellout

A position that might have once felt perfect can start demanding we sell out to maintain the status quo. We're forced to choose: compromise something important to hold on to other things we want? Or leave both the good and the bad behind to look for better work? #ethicalsellout

In the face of the societal pressure to "always be yourself," we need to remember that we each have many selves, and that there's no shame in flexing these many identities as needed to navigate a messy world. #ethicalsellout

Everything does not have to be a purity test. Sometimes it may be ok to "sellout." My conversation with Inge Hansen​ Inge Hansen bit.ly/3ax3ELs

What do we do when sticking to our values means losing security, prestige, or stability? There are no one-size-fits-all answers, but by centering our impact, seeking nuance, and balancing self-honesty with self-compassion we can make our own way forward. #ethicalsellout

Subconsciously, all of us tweak what we say to come off better to others. To what extent is this skillful marketing vs being disingenuous? And for people who are disadvantaged by their background or identities, is doing so "getting ahead," or simply "catching up?" #ethicalsellout

When dilemmas involve our sense of identity and connection with our community, they can sometimes feel impossible to make. By seeking out people who love and support us, we can get guidance to balance doing what's best for us and maintaining our integrity. #ethicalsellout
