PowHER Hour

A long overdue update.

Meet Tissa Hami. (Pronounced like Lisa Mommy.)

Tissa is an activist, idealist, and challenger. She is an Ivy League graduate turned investment banker, turned stand-up comic, turned consultant who is known for her groundbreaking work as a female Muslim.

In this episode Tissa’s shares her story of how a career on Wall Street, where she was often the “only” in the room – the only woman, person of color, or immigrant led her to work as a stand up comic and ultimately to founding Korsi Consulting, which specializes in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.

I hope you’ll tune in to this important conversation and also take to heart her call to action at the end.

As always, thanks for listening.

Is there a bright side to cancer? I am not sure about that but I do know, that even though the worst of things, there are still little things to be grateful for.  In this episode, I share some of the unexpected silver linings to my cancer diagnosis.

It feels good to back talking to other people and I couldn't have asked for a better guest to get restarted. 

Meet Asha Dahya. Asha is the author of a recently released book 'Today's Wonder Women: Everyday Superheroes Who Are Changing The World' which features inspiring, heroic stories of 50 women and girls from around the world. She is also the founder of a digital platform called GirlTalkHQ.com, which shares the voices and stories of women. 

She also shares her own story, from Australia to Hollywood, to leaving a bad relationship and the conservative church she thought was her home, to why she created GirlTalkHQ. She is herself, an inspiration. We talk about all that, plus some exciting projects she has on the horizon. 

In this episode, I share what's on my mind in the wake of the Atlanta mass murder of 8 Asian Americans.

The latest update in my breast cancer journey.

Just another update and what I’m looking forward to. 

I so excited for you to meet my special guest...my husband, Jonathan. He is a rock star doctor, dad, and husband, as well as an aspiring musician.  

In this episode, we talk about he is coping with my diagnoses and share some fun stories about how we met and how we kill time in the middle of the night when we can't sleep.

Just a quick update to let you know where I am in the process.
