Authentic Vulnerability

Madam approaches empathy mapping with a unique style helping folks navigate communication and reactionary behaviors while taking a walk in someone else’s heels. Being your authentic self in the workplace requires being vulnerable and embracing that vulnerability exploring core values, personality types, emotional capacity, and interpersonal strengths.

Drag Queen Bingo

Madam Nymphadora takes the nostalgic 1950’s game of bingo and makes it a little more racey, a little more raucous and a lot more fun.  Drag Queen Bingo is a unique way for your audience to socialize and have a grand old time. Every game is tailored to you, with questions and answers about your event and the history of the credit union movement.  Madame blends the traditional game of bingo with the live performance of the art of drag and cabaret. This edutainment event is an audacious mix of education and entertainment that is sure to have your audiences smiling from ear to ear.

Intersectionality & Development Issues

Often marginalized communities of people are excluded due to a lack of empathy and understanding for others life experiences.  As a Queer, Latinx, HIV+ individual, raising awareness of intersectionality and how it plays a role in DE&I efforts is at the core of this workshop.  Dan will share personal life experiences that have shaped who they are as an individual both personally and professionally.   Participants will become stronger advocates for inclusion and representation through the lens of power and privilege to better understand socioeconomic intersectionality.
