Anonymous messages can escalate conflict quickly and enable bullying, harassment, discrimination, or retaliation.

These situations can also be difficult to investigate.

Phone numbers, usernames, throwaway accounts, VPNs, shared devices, and personal platforms may make it hard to identify the sender.

But difficulty does not eliminate the employer’s obligation to respond once it is on notice.

Employers should:
➡️ Preserve evidence immediately, including screenshots, message threads, sender details, and related workplace context.
➡️ Investigate fairly and neutrally, without jumping to conclusions.
➡️ Assess safety risks and consider interim measures when needed.

Clear policies, prompt action, and a neutral process can help reduce risk while reinforcing expectations for respectful conduct regardless of the technology used.

Did you know that full-time LGBTQIA+ workers face a significant pay gap?

➡ LGBTQIA+ workers earn between 10% to 32% less than their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts with LGBTQ+ women earning even less. 😔

➡ Transgender individuals experience the most severe disparities, earning approximately 60 to 70 cents for every dollar the average worker makes.

➡ LGBTQIA+ people of color experience compounding wage gaps as a result of overlapping racial and sexual/gender discrimination

It's time to acknowledge and work towards a more inclusive and equal work environment!

The BBB Sacramento Women's Conference was exactly the kind of day that reminds you why showing up matters.

A few of my takeaways from the sessions:

The Emotional Side of Money with Tari Vickery was a powerful reminder that our financial decisions are rarely just about numbers. The money stories we inherit shape how we think about security, opportunity, and what we're building.

Women, Work, and What's Next with Tami Hackbarth and Darcy Totten of the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls brought a refreshingly honest look at where women stand today. Progress is real, but so are the gaps. The conversation on parity, leadership representation, and workplace culture was both grounding and energizing.

The Leap That Changed Everything with Lizbeth West of Weintraub Tobin and Dr. Christina Bilyeu of Kaiser Permanente was exactly the session I needed. These two women rewrote the stories they'd been told about what they could and couldn't do and who now lead with a commitment to lift others along the way.

Legacy isn't one big moment. It's the decisions we make, the people we bring with us, and the rooms we help others get into. Grateful for a day full of exactly that. 🙌

Artificial intelligence has become a staple of daily work, and mid-year reviews are the perfect time to start getting a clear picture of how your employees are using it!

Here’s a quick DOs and DON’Ts guide to help you get it right:

✅ DO uncover real workflows and understand how AI is being used in daily tasks.
✅ DO reinforce guardrails like approved tools, prohibited data, and the importance of human oversight.
✅ DO identify training needs and set clear, job-related expectations for AI use.

❌ DON’T evaluate personal AI use
❌ DON’T rely on vague metrics like usage counts.
❌ DON’T treat AI use as a proxy for innovation without tying it to job-related outcomes.

By focusing on compliance, consistent standards, and actionable insights, you can build a stronger, more responsible AI strategy.
