About this podcast
Privilege is all around you. Everywhere you go, everything you say, every decision you make is a reflection of the privilege that you have. And more often than not, privilege is seen as a bad thing or something to feel guilty about, but it in fact can be a powerful tool to create massive impact & change if used right. Welcome to the Guilty Privilege podcast. Hosted by Amber Cabral, an award-winning Inclusion Strategist, certified coach, speaker, author, and former Diversity Strategist at Walmart Stores, Inc., this podcast is a space for you to learn all about your privilege and use it to make an impact. In these episodes, Amber is joined by thought leaders to share how they've embraced their privilege to stand in the gap and be a better human to others. Together with Amber and her lineup of trailblazing guests, you will learn to identify & embrace your privilege, and use it to empower those around you, whether it be in your workplace, your communities, or even in your own home. It’s time for you to stop getting allyship wrong, and start taking responsibility for your privilege. Welcome to Guilty Privilege with Amber Cabral!
