Episode description
Lizelle van Vuuren, Founder of Women Who Startup and Women Who Startup Foundation, joins me in a candid conversation about why representation matters for women, women of color, and other marginalized groups. We cover what it feels like to be tokenized, being a woman in tech, and wishing LinkedIn was a thing when we were in college.
This week we cover Woman of Impact, Lauren Simmons, who is the only female full-time stockbroker on the NYSE. She also happens to be a woman of color and in her early 20's, making her the youngest stockbroker on the floor! Lauren Simmons is up big things and she's exactly the kind of leader you should know about.
