We're back for part-two of our two-part episode about Pride.

Two Piers Pride 2023 - Part I

We're joined by two of our Advisory Board members: Gene Valentin and Jason Gray, who share their lived experiences and insights regarding Pride: what it means to them, where Pride has lost its shine, and how individuals and companies can be more effective allies. This is a fairly unusual episode for us. It's more of a panel discussion than an interview, and it's pretty raw and unfiltered.

This is a two-part episode as part of our Pride Series this month, so stay tuned for part-two next week!
