068: When You're Queer, Work In Beer and Black - Ren Navarro
Manage episode 279330109 series 2835018
When Ren Navarro entered the craft beer industry, she quickly realized the lack of representation as a queer, black woman in beer. Ren shares with us her experiences paving her own path of carving out her space at the beer table, along with how the work she does as the Founder of Beer. Diversity. Informs and educates to initiate change both in and out of the industry. In this episode we discuss:
- From a career in a call centre to a top consultant of craft beer
- Life as a Queer, Black Woman in Beer
- What it’s like to not see representations of yourself
- Jargon, and how it can be isolating and uninviting
- Ren’s role as the Founder of The Society Of Beer Drinking Ladies
- Women as the initial inventors of beer (and how it quickly became dominated by men)
- What made Ren’s “coming out” experience not stressful
- Filling your cup as a minority
