Swishie - Interviews with inspiring women of color who thrive in work and life
09: Glasa Gottschalk on being your unapologetic, authentic self and creating space in life

However, Glasa’s challenge to high-achievers is to unbusy yourselves by creating some space in your calendar: be alone with your thoughts, stop ignoring what you might be pushing down, and get clear on what you really want out of life. Often we are afraid to just be with ourselves, yet individuals who are comfortable with this thrive as change agents because they’re already taking a risk when they show up as themselves. Glasa helps marginalized identities truly show up in life 100% unapologetic and authentic. The more space peop...

08: Hannah Martin on transitions, sustainable work, and enjoying the journey
Is it worth it to experience “success” and big shifts if it’s done in a way you don’t enjoy?

07: Neha O’Rourke on showing up for yourself and finding purpose
Neha O’Rourke had the six-figure salary, award-winning campaigns and clients, worked at the best agencies, and was “successful.” However, Neha was breaking down physically, emotionally, and mentally. Her hair was falling out – and in her words, “as an Indian, when you’re affecting the hair, something’s wrong!” She asked herself why she would allow her career to put her in this type of place when it wasn’t fulfilling. So began her journey to get clear on her purpose and what actually mattered to her in life. After quitting and taking a year and a half of being “somewhere i...
