We’ve got a lot to say in our new episode after @leaninorg and @mckinseyco recent Women in the Workplace 2024: The 10th Anniversary Report.
HR executive Dr. Merary Simeon and career coach Courtney Copelin reflect on the ongoing challenges faced by multicultural women and highlight the continued need for systemic change.
We get candid about the barriers to advocacy and provide a variety of ways multicultural women can take action because if we, as a community, do not advocate for ourselves, we can’t expect others to do so.
“If we don’t care, then who will?” says Dr. Merary.

When was the last time you shared your network and made a connection? 🎯
In the spirit of Women’s History Month, we want to applaud the power of women supporting women! 👭🏽 A beautiful example came to life in our latest episode when our co-host, Merary, told us about a multicultural woman who went above and beyond to connect her with someone in her network—proving community triumphs over competition.
Remember, your strength as a professional is amplified when you share it. Whether you’re at the top of the ladder or just starting your climb, reach out. 🪜🤝🏼 It’s time we debunk the myth that women of color don’t support each other in corporate America.
Tag a remarkable woman who’s made a difference in your career or life and let’s keep this chain of positivity flowing! 🫶🏼

For many women of color, empathy is part of their culture. That’s a good thing because it can take you far in your career. 🚀
In Episode 89, @cindytutran shares how growing up in a big Asian family taught her to care and help others however she could. Cindy brought this same empathy to the workplace and it has helped her climb the ladder over the last 12 years to become Managing Director at @slalomconsulting, a global business and technology consulting company.
Success as a collective group means you don’t have to do it alone. “It’s actually much more powerful to have other people lift you up than for you to get there by yourself,” says Cindy. 💪🏽
