18: “Decolonization” & the legacy of the plantation in our workplace (with Podge Thomas)

In today’s episode, I sat down with the amazing Podge Thomas, founder of Small Business Co-Pilot. Our word? “Decolonization,” especially how it relates to our workplaces. I know it sounds heavy (and it is), but it’s also important,

Podge brings a unique perspective as a business strategist passionate about reimagining workplace practices. Our conversation covers:

  • The etymology and history of words like "colonize" and "decolonization"
  • How colonial legacies continue to influence our work environments
  • Practical approaches to reimagining hiring processes and other business systems
  • Using tools like Notion to build more equitable workplace structures

Podge's insights challenge us to question ingrained practices and envision more human-centered approaches to work. Her expertise reminds us that we don't have to replicate harmful corporate structures - we can create something better.

Key takeaways:

  • The importance of transparency in hiring processes
  • How to build trust from the first interaction with potential employees
  • Practical tips for decolonizing business operations

I'm grateful to Podge for sharing her wisdom and helping us reimagine what work can look like. Her perspective is invaluable as we strive to create more equitable and fulfilling work environments.
