E04: Urmi Hossain: Culture, Women's Empowerment & Money


Listen Later

I met Urmi Hossain, a campaigner for causes such as women's empowerment and giving back to the non-privileged. We talked about her work to empower others through her blog and her book, 'Discovering Your Identity: A Rebirth From Interracial Struggle', where she talks about her struggle to find her identity in her Italian-Bengali upbringing. We also discussed pursuing a CFA designation and the sacrifice needed to pass.
