I had the opportunity to speak with Nataly Kogan, who is the co-founder & CEO of Happier, Inc., which is dedicated towards helping others develop emotional fitness skills, break free from daily burnout, and unleash their full potential.

We discussed some of her pivotal life experiences, including what she encountered as one of the youngest and only women working in venture capital, and how being a Russian refugee at 13 impacted her outlook on life. She also touched on the power of choice and learning. This was such a valuable and enjoyable conversation—I hope you all enjoy it!

Catherine Cartwright started her journey shortly after becoming a young single mom at the age of 19. She put herself through undergraduate and graduate school with minimal family support as well as a young daughter to take care of. When her daughter needed a costly dental surgery, she switched career fields from academia to the tech space to have more monetary flexibility. She has successfully created a credible name for herself within the tech industry as she catalyzed her gift of leadership as well as her way of sparking change in areas that need it. Currently she is in the process of intertwining her passion for art and her passion for social impact with her corporate identity. We discussed topics such as strategies to grow in a corporate role, the importance of mentorship and networking, and staying connected to your passions outside of your corporate job.

Welcome to my first episode on A Woman's Business!

Today, I interviewed Anita Khedkar, who is currently an Agile Coach but has also filled various different roles prior to that. We thoroughly discussed the introduction of the Agile workflow to businesses and how that has impacted production, efficiency, and collaboration within corporate environments. Having been an immigrant from India, she also touches on the cultural differences she had to face in the United States, how this affected her career, as well as, what resources she used to create a community for herself as she experienced her own personal and professional growth.
