#002 - Kay has decided to start the show with a topic that she's been passionate about her entire life: the power of stories to lead change. The core of the work she's done with business leaders and entrepreneurs across 17+ industries is centered around storytelling, and she's witnessed how individual stories lead to more connection and more visibility for underrepresented groups.

She starts off by explaining a bit of her story growing up as a daughter of Filipino immigrants in Los Angeles, California, all the way through to her cultural encounters as an immigrant herself in Madrid, Spain, since 2010. Kay also shares her encounters with discrimination, and how she's learned to share those stories in uncomfortable conversations with others to bring about change. Finally, she walks you through how you can share your encounters with discrimination in the workplace without diminishing your truth, and step up as a minority leader to encourage advocacy, allyship, and a step towards systemic inclusion.
