How to Be a Better LGBTQ+ Ally at Work in 2026

Victoria here, Girlboss’ executive editor. 👋

At Girlboss, we talk a lot about building better workplaces—and that has to include workplaces where LGBTQ+ employees feel protected, respected, and supported all year long. 🫂 So today, we’re digging into what meaningful allyship actually looks like (not just changing your logo to rainbow colors for a few days! 🙄), with practical guidance from a trusted DEI expert.

Other stuff the Girlboss team is yapping about on Slack:

• A gentle reminder for anyone feeling behind today. 💗

• There’s a new history-making woman in charge at the Vatican!

• Keeping up with the world only takes five minutes with this newsletter.*
