You’ve done the learning.

Now it’s time to live the work.

REPRESENTED gave you the awareness, courage and language to see the world and your business through a new lens.

But awareness is just the beginning.

“True allyship is about staying in the work. It’s about showing up when it’s uncomfortable, asking better questions and learning from one another as we navigate the realities of racial equity in real time.

That’s what ALLY is here for.

How ALLY began

The idea for ALLY was born during the closing ceremony of REPRESENTED’s ninth cohort.

After ten powerful weeks together, a few students asked if there could be a way to keep going. To continue meeting, reflecting and practising what they had learned.

One said, “I could come to these calls forever.”
Another added, “It helps keep this work top of mind.”

We talked about what a safe, sustainable community could look like. One where storytelling, accountability and ongoing support could keep the learning alive.

That conversation stayed with me. And it became clear that what we had created together in REPRESENTED wasn’t meant to end at ten weeks.

ALLY grew out of that moment. From the hearts and hopes of those who wanted to keep living this work in community.

In Their Words

"It’s humbling to be in a space where there’s no malice, just generosity and courage. I want to keep integrating this work into my life, not just for ten weeks, but permanently."

Linden Turner
Entrepreneur Trainer

“Sometimes it feels like you’re doing this work alone, but every call reminded me that there are good people in the world who want to make things better. I don’t want that connection to end.”

Amy Robertson-Thrift
Online Bookkeeper & Sustainability Manager

“You’ve built our capacity in ways I can’t explain. It feels like the beginning of something lifelong.”

Dusk Liney
Trauma Sensitive Perinatal Educator

What is ALLY?

ALLY is a private membership for graduates of REPRESENTED who want to keep practising racial equity with integrity, accountability and care.

It’s a space where we come together monthly to reflect, share stories and explore how allyship looks in our lives, leadership and businesses today.

It’s not a course.

It’s not more homework.

It’s a lifestyle. A supportive community that helps you live what you’ve learned.

Inside ALLY you'll find

Monthly Live Calls (10 per year)

Each month, we gather for a 90-minute conversation that combines:

  • Storytelling from Annie: behind-the-scenes reflections on navigating racial equity in real time, personally and professionally.
  • Storytelling from members: 2–3 alumni share how they’re practising allyship, what’s been hard, what’s been healing and what they’re learning.
  • Live coaching and discussion: space to ask questions, reflect and receive support.

 

These calls are the heart of ALLY. Thoughtful, honest and restorative.

Current Affairs Spotlight

Because there’s always something happening in the world that calls us to reflect.
Together, we:

  • Unpack selected current events through the REPRESENTED lens
  • Connect our learning to real-world contexts and conversations
  • Deepen our understanding of how allyship shows up in practice

A note from Annie

I created ALLY because racial equity work doesn’t end when the course finishes. It becomes a way of being.

This space is for those who want to keep showing up with courage, curiosity and care.
Where we can share what’s unfolding in our lives, talk about what’s happening in the world and keep holding one another accountable with grace and love.

ALLY began as a conversation between a handful of REPRESENTED graduates who didn’t want the journey to end. Now, with your membership, it has the opportunity to become a living, breathing community for all of us who believe that racial equity isn’t a destination, it’s a lifelong practice.”

With love,

Annie
