homeroom is an international podcast bridging the education gap between the classroom and the living room by starting conversations impacting the next generation.
In this episode, I speak with Adrienne, a senior marketing executive, lifelong reader, and mom of two, about her education journey as the first person in her family to go to college. We talk about how her childhood love of reading fiction and memoirs translated to her studies in business school and the world of finance, and what Wharton taught her about surviving in the real world—along with what it didn’t. On that note, we also discuss what it means to be a mom who has to juggle parenting and career, and what she thinks we need to do better to prepare the next generation for the future ahead.
