Working while Black. We all know what it can be like navigating the workforce while trying to be our authentic selves. From our names, to our hair, we often find ourselves having to hide or change pieces of who we are. Enter Walter Gainer II. As a young man with locs, he had some anxiety about graduating college and having to search for work. Would he face discrimination? What were other Black professionals saying? As it turned out, there wasn't a bunch of information out there for him. This implored Walter to go out and find it. Listen in as Walt shares his story and what he's found out along his journey. Plus, how his hair journey led him into the LinkedIn Accelerator program. 

If you liked going Man to Man with Walter make sure you check him out @itsthegreatwalt on IG and Twitter and check out Boss Locks. Plus make sure you tell another king, or queen about the show so we can keep spreading the message. Don't forget to follow the podcast so you never miss a new episode, and give us that 5 star rating so other people know what's up!
