Welcome to the Inclusive AF Podcast, hosted by Katee Van Horn and Jackye Clayton. We trade corporate jargon for candid conversations about HR, leadership, and the future of work.

About the show

Every episode mixes strategy with the kind of banter you’d expect from two best friends who’ve seen it all. We talk AI in hiring and workforce planning, culture signals that push people out, career boundaries when work feels hopeless, and how policy shifts land on real employees, not just slide decks.

What you’ll hear

  • Practical ways to lead through uncertainty without performative fixes
  • How to spot culture problems before your best people leave
  • Clear takes on DEI rollbacks, equity, and belonging that don’t rename the work and call it done
  • Tools for protecting your energy, setting boundaries, and staying human at work

Who it’s for

HR folks, people leaders, and anyone done with optics-only inclusion. If you care about workplaces that work for more than a few people at the top, you’re in the right place.
