Careers don't happen in a vacuum, but rather unfold in the context of our lives. Anu Shultes' career journey has included setbacks, hard landings and serious illness. In spite of it all she persisted, found her voice, and earlier this year was named CEO of LendUp, a socially responsible FinTech company redefining financial services for the emerging middle class.
 
Anu candidly shares how she faced adversity head-on and became fearless along the way.  Her career decisions not only led her to the helm of a company, but also shaped the leader and person she is today.
