Hustle Grind Shine & Reignite: Episode 3 with Mita Mallick

Hustle Grind Shine & Reignite with Jessica Hartley

Mita Mallick has had an incredible journey from childhood into Corporate America, learning to stand up for herself and for others, and use her voice as a force of positive change. In this episode, we sojourn with Mita from a challenging childhood of being othered and bullied, to rising in the ranks at different organizations to currently being Head of Inclusion, Equity and Impact at Carta. We experience how this shy kid from immigrant parents turned into a powerful person living her truth, out loud.

We explore:

• How to find confidence and self-worth when you are bombarded with messages that you are not valued
• The power of representation at the highest level of a company and the positive impact it has not only on your people but the bottom line
• How to advocate for yourself and beat the stigma, when you’re the “Brown” woman doing “Black & Brown” work

Check out Mita’s amazing new podcast with Dee C. Marshall called “Brown Table Talk.” The first episodes of Season 2 have dropped, and the show is a featured podcast in partnership with The LinkedIn Podcast Network. In addition to LinkedIn, the show is available on most platforms including Apple and Spotify. Stay abreast of new episodes with their LinkedIn newsletter.
