“I don’t know where to start.”
This is a phrase I’ve heard before from folks who want to build a stronger equity design practice but aren’t sure what first steps to take.
Here’s the thing: There is no right place to start. Everyone is at a different point in their journey, with different experience to build on, and different resources to work with.
But there is a right time. And that’s now.
If this resonates with you, take a moment and reflect on what’s holding you back. Are you hesitant to start because you’re afraid of “getting it wrong”? Do you feel like you’re lacking the knowledge or tools that might help you move forward? Are you worried about how others might perceive you?
Be honest with yourself. Take the time to really reflect. Journal.
Once you can name the root of your hesitations, you can move forward with clarity and intention.
