About this listen
In this episode of Money for Plantain, Dionne takes an unfiltered look at The Black Work Experience — the realities, the resilience, and the reasons behind the unspoken rules that shape how we show up at work. From code-switching as a survival strategy to the pressure to “fit in,” she explores where these expectations come from and how race, perception, and power all play a role.
But this isn’t just about the challenges — it’s also about the brilliance. Dionne celebrates the creativity, influence, and diversity of thought that Black professionals bring to the workplace, sharing real examples of how listening to Black voices has helped businesses innovate and grow.
Candid, reflective, and full of cultural truth, this episode reminds us that inclusion isn’t about performance — it’s about progress. And when we create space for authenticity, we don’t just change the workplace — we transform it.
