“The show tackles a challenging issue that often is quietly overlooked. At first I didn’t realize that “the only one in the room” really meant telling our truth about being “the only one in the room.” Wow, at 27- I was CEO of a $250MM dollar Jv that I structured and led. Of course out of 400 employees and 8 offices, I was the only one leading such a firm. Before social media to expose me. Actually, my grandmother told me to NOT tell anyone or I would never get a husband. She was correct! I digress, after the death of my mom at 48-years of age, I removed myself from the global stage quietly had a son, and became invisible. Not true- landed at a multi billion dollar real estate development firm and people knew my name! Thankfully still no social media so they assumed I was a caucasian female, then I moved to Orange County and soon after social media arrived- I’m still the only one in the room in Real Estate Development, Venture Capital, esports, cryptocurrency, cannabis and more!
Basically, thank you for sharing your journey as I’m finally ready to share my truth! It’s contagious!!!”
