Yes!
As we continue to explore some of the prominent themes in Simon Sinek’s “Leaders Eat Last,” we hope you enjoy this week’s reflections on the importance of belonging!
To get us started, check out this reflection guide from the PROGRESS Center at the American Institutes for Research. Although the questions are asked from an education lens, they can easily be applied to thinking about our communities and social groups.
So, how do you think we are doing as a society to ensure that all people experience the ten dimensions of belonging? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

When we talk about ’changing your lens’, this is what we mean.
We’re very done with the world trying to remove or reduce our neurodivergent traits. It’s so harmful.
Instead of changing us, let’s work on changing attitudes.
Instead of spending your time trying to teach us neurotypical ways, why not spend that time challenging the negative beliefs that you have carried for a lifetime? Why not put your energy towards educating others about it?
I know many of us here are working hard to do it already.
Glad to have you all by my side.
As I’ve said before, we’re stronger together.
To hell with the Old Way.
