In this episode of Listen Then Speak, I had the opportunity to chop it up with Ted Talk keynote speaker and Legal Expert Sejal Thakkar. Today she's crushing the Diversity and Inclusion Space with a hot fire that is needed in this day and age. Her confidence and poise is one of the cornerstones of who she is. However, we talked about some trials that were the onramp to who she would become. This episode will not be for the faint of heart. We get very candid, the effects of colorism, classism as well as the benefit of taking risk to stand when others might not stand with you. Sejal will share her personal testimony of how she desired to pioneer efforts to use her voice and platform for those who are not seen and heard. Listen to the first half as we GET into it and explore how trial can become triumph.
