S1, E18 - The Album and The Mixtape: Faith, Hip Hop & AI Regulation

This week, Marcus and Amanda sit down with global AI product leader, civil rights attorney, and filmmaker Julie Wenah to explore what it really means to bring your whole self to work.Julie’s religious faith, love of hip hop, and filmmaking passions “outside” of work inform her roles and her life impact in technology and equity. She explains a powerful framework, the “album and the mixtape,” to explain how our professional roles and personal passions coexist to shape who we are and how we lead. Together, they unpack identity, belonging, grief, service, and the courage it takes to show up fully in spaces that weren’t built for you.At its core, this episode is about purpose. About the unseen experiences that shape our “body of work.” And about the responsibility we carry, not just to succeed, but to serve.
