Burned out from years of overwork and exhausted from trying to “fit in” to a corporate work world, Deepa Purushothaman knew she was not alone in needing work to work better for women of color. Now, she is leading the call to reimagine how business gets done – both inside and outside the office, as a DEI advocate and the author of “The First, The Few, the Only: How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America.” We uncover the steps for taking obstacles and turning them into fuel, how to have difficult conversations about race, and giving yourself permission to try – in every area of your life.
