We are thrilled to have Deepa Purushothaman on the podcast today to talk about a very important topic right now, as we are at a moment of reckoning with women leaving the workforce in droves. The social justice movement has illuminated that what’s happening at work just isn’t working, especially for women of color, and Deepa is someone who asks the big questions that aren’t being asked right now around race. Her work is shining a light on these issues which have always been there but just not talked about, and for that we are so grateful to have the opportunity to bring Deepa on the podcast to share her thoughts and insights with you.
Deepa’s book, The First, the Few, the Only: How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America, was published in March 2022 to international acclaim, and if you loved this conversation with Deepa, you’ll definitely want to read it.
If you’re finding our content and the work we do here at Pursuing HER Purpose helpful and meaningful to you, it would mean so much to us as a small business if you could leave a review on Apple Podcasts!
