Jameela Jamil: "Make Space, Don’t Take Space"

 

 

We were beyond excited to host Jameela Jamil as our keynote speaker for our Desert Pop Up! As a crowd favorite on NBC’s The Good Place, Jameela is a Hollywood icon. But she’s perhaps just as well-known for her outspoken voice in challenging impossible body standards, pushing the notion that women are, in fact, more than their weight and appearance. She stands for a mission we can all get behind, and we were so thrilled to have had her.

“This is now a time of sisterhood. Seeing how high my activism has risen, seeing how I’ve been embraced for being so outspoken, so rude—by even the media and men—is a sign that change is here.”



 

Jaclyn Johnson is the founder and CEO of Create & Cultivate, author of WorkParty, and host of the WorkParty podcast.
