Read my latest article reflecting on #BCorpMonth and our collective journey toward economic resilience and regeneration. As we celebrate, I'm reminded that what makes our movement powerful isn't just certification—it's the people and community of Gen B: individuals using business as a force for good, rooted in action and the unwavering belief we can do better. Last year alone, I spent 100+ hours on the road connecting with our community. These moments of solidarity aren't just inspiring—they're essential. As I shared in my keynote at our #BCorp conference last year: "When individualism fails, community prevails. Together, we're building more than businesses—we're creating the foundation for a truly resilient economy." Read my full reflections on our journey so far and the path ahead. #BusinessForGood #GenB #EconomicResilience #BCorpMovement

As Black History Month comes to a close, we find ourselves reflecting on the resources close to home — the most important being community. Community is strength. In times of uncertainty, building connections and keeping open lines of communication can make all the difference. As purpose-driven businesses, B Corps know that resilience is a collective effort. From threats to DEI programs to rollbacks on social and environmental progress, the challenges are real—but so is the power of community. By leaning into local networks and values-aligned partnerships, we can move forward with purpose, empathy, and action. Looking for inspiration? We’ve gathered ways B Corps are strengthening their communities and deepening relationships to create lasting impact. Head to B The Change to learn more and join the convo.
