EP 025 | Embracing Diversity for Better Teams | Daralyse Lyons

Daralyse Lyons is a journalist, actor, and activist who has written over two dozen full-length books, short stories, and countless articles. A graduate of NYU with a double major in English and Religious Studies and a minor in History, Daralyse is a member of the National Association of Black Journalists. Daralyse is passionate about exposing the painful side of history. Daralyse believes in a world where diversity is celebrated and has made it a mission to stand for a more integrated world.

As a sexually fluid person with relationships and experiences with men and women, Daralyse has found a place amidst many communities attempting to erase Daralyse’s orientation and has been a voice within the darkness. Daralyse’s award-winning children's book, "I'm Mixed!" inspired Daralyse to educate others about embracing all aspects of themselves. Daralyse has since written and spoken extensively on diversity, using their unique background as a Biracial, multiethnic, and sexually fluid woman to foster cross-cultural understanding.
