In our latest Women's History Month episode, host Lola Adeyemo sits down with Amaka Eziuku, Managing Partner at Synesis Group. With over 14 years of experience transforming talent and operational complexity into strategic advantages, Amaka shares insights from her journey as a Nigerian immigrant in the consulting world. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How intersectional identity can become a professional strength in consulting Navigating educational and career choices as an immigrant professional Understanding the dynamic landscape of consulting and who thrives in this environment Balancing career ambition with personal development and avoiding "arrested development" Building effective support systems when your field is specialized Practical advice for professionals considering large versus boutique consulting firms A Career Conversation with Amaka Eziuku on Identity, Ambition, and Balance: The Power of Intersectionality This conversation opens with Amaka beautifully articulating how intersectionality shapes who we are professionally. Moving from Nigeria to America at age 7, she embodies a blend of cultural influences contributing to her tenacity and resilience in the workplace. An impactful point in her reflection on family influence is how she inherited her entrepreneurial thinking from her father, a businessman, while her "heart" - emotional intelligence - comes from her mother. This combination of traits has served as a foundation for her success in her professional journey. An Unconventional Educational Path Amaka's educational journey defies the typical narrative of singular focus. At Lamar University, rather than narrowing her studies, she embraced breadth and graduated with three degrees: Finance, Management Information Systems, and Economics. Later, she added a Master's in Computer Information Engineering from Northwestern University. This multidisciplinary approach wasn't initially strategic—it evolved from recognizing opportunities when her original finance path didn't align with her university's strengths. Amaka emphasizes the importance of seeing available opportunities before you can connect them. This adaptability would become a recurring theme in her career. Navigating the Consulting Landscape For listeners considering consulting careers, Amaka provides valuable context about this dynamic field. She likens the consulting sector to the oil and gas industry—with businesses operating within businesses—highlighting its complexity and breadth. Her expertise in talent and operations consulting involves everything from change management to lean transformations, with projects spanning different industries and problem sets. This variety is both the challenge and appeal of consulting work. The most compelling insight for aspiring consultants: consulting requires a personality that thrives in dynamic environments. Amaka notes that if juggling multiple responsibilities brings satisfaction rather than stress, consulting might be the right career path. The Hidden Cost of Career Success Perhaps the most vulnerable part of the conversation was Amaka's candid reflection on being a "serial careerist." While her focused approach led to professional achievements, she acknowledges experiencing "arrested development" in personal areas. She cautions that placing the majority of weight on career can lead to losing sight of oneself as a person. This insight resonates deeply—career success without personal development can lead to viewing relationships transactionally and struggling to find identity beyond work. For professionals at all stages, this serves as a powerful reminder to evaluate whether career pursuits are crowding out other crucial aspects of human development. Building Support Systems One challenge Amaka faced as a young consultant was finding mentors who understood her professional world. With family and friends often asking "so what do you do again?", she found her community within her workplace. "In work, I had a support system within work," she explains. Female and male leaders who recognized her potential became crucial allies. This highlights an important strategy for professionals in specialized fields: sometimes your most valuable mentors come from your professional circle rather than personal connections. Advice for Today's Professionals Amaka's guidance for navigating today's evolving workplace centers on two seemingly contradictory principles: have a plan but remain open to change. She encourages professionals to understand their values before choosing between large organizations and boutique firms. While big consulting firms offer valuable brand recognition and development opportunities, they aren't the right fit for everyone's personality or work style. Her parting wisdom resonates regardless of industry: "Don't forget who you are. Prioritize you as you continue to grow and evolve. Don't lose track of that because you're chasing something, whether that's a title or position." The conversation concluded with a lighthearted discussion about Nigerian cuisine—Amaka (Igbo) expressing appreciation for jollof rice typically associated with Lola's Yoruba heritage. This moment of cultural connection reminds listeners that shared experiences often transcend regional differences, much like how intersectional identities can become strengths in the workplace when fully embraced.

With a rich background spanning international development, education, and healthcare, Valdés Wochinger brings valuable insights from her diverse career journey. Her current role involves supporting the division's culture, strategic implementation, learning and impact, and overall governance effectiveness, while promoting communications-related collaborations across the foundation. From Academic Pursuits to Social Impact Born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico, to parents of African and European descent, Valdés Wochinger's journey began in a multicultural household that shaped her worldview. Her career in international development was launched through a Fulbright Research Scholarship in Southern Mexico, where she worked with local governments, nonprofits, and healthcare institutions to address social inequities affecting Indigenous women's access to education and healthcare. This experience sparked a realization that her true calling lay beyond academic research – in translating research into actionable policies and direct community impact.

In this compelling episode of the Thriving in Intersectionality podcast, host Lola Adeyemo speaks with Ukeme Awakessien Jeter, who made history as the first person of color to serve as Mayor of Upper Arlington, Ohio. Born in Nigeria and educated across multiple countries, Ukeme shares her remarkable journey from engineer to lawyer to civic leader. Her story illuminates the unique challenges and opportunities faced by immigrant professionals in America, while offering practical insights for career development and community engagement. Key Takeaways: The power of intersectionality as a personal "fingerprint" Ukeme explains how being a Black immigrant woman who has lived in eight cities across four countries shapes her unique perspective and experiences How visa restrictions can impact career choices - Her transition from engineering to law school was partly driven by H1B visa limitations, highlighting the complex challenges immigrants face in career planning The importance of strategic networking - Rather than just focusing on assigned tasks, immigrant professionals need to look up, look out, and connect with others in spaces aligned with their career vision - Why representation matters in local government A personal experience with her daughter's struggle to fit in at school motivated Ukeme to get involved in local politics and create change at the community level Breaking through cultural norms - From her father's progressive decision to send her to study in America to her own choice to enter politics, Ukeme demonstrates how challenging traditional expectations can open new paths for success From Engineering to City Hall: A Conversation with Ukeme Awakessien Jeter In this inspiring episode of the Thriving in Intersectionality podcast, host Lola Adeyemo sits down with Ukeme (pronounced "Ukemi") Awakessien Jeter, a Nigerian-born leader who made history as the first person of color to serve as mayor of Upper Arlington, Ohio. Their conversation spans immigration, education, career transitions, and the importance of civic engagement. A Journey Across Continents Ukeme's story begins in Nigeria, but quickly becomes global. Born to a father in the oil and gas industry, she spent her formative years in Muscat, Oman, before returning to Nigeria for high school. Her father's progressive decision to send her to the United States for college in 2000 marked the beginning of her American journey, where she arrived alone without family connections. Breaking Through Barriers Armed with an engineering degree from the University of Maine and later an MBA, Ukeme navigated the complex world of corporate America while managing visa restrictions. When faced with career limitations due to H1B visa constraints, she made the bold decision to reset her path by attending law school. This transition exemplifies her determination to overcome systemic barriers and create new opportunities for herself. From Professional Success to Civic Leadership What propelled Ukeme into politics wasn't ambition but maternal concern. When her daughter, attending kindergarten in predominantly white Upper Arlington, expressed a desire to straighten her hair to fit in, Ukeme recognized the need for change at a community level. This personal experience led her to become increasingly involved in local governance, eventually running for and winning the historic position of mayor. Advice for Immigrant Professionals Ukeme emphasizes the importance of looking beyond just doing good work. While immigrants often focus on excelling at their assigned tasks, she advocates for strategic networking aligned with one's vision and dreams. Her message is clear: don't wait for permission or introductions – take initiative and move directly toward your goals, whether in corporate America or civic engagement.

At the start of a new year, many professionals reassess their career paths and goals. In this episode of Thriving in Intersectionality, host Lola Adeyemo shares insights from a recent mentoring conversation with a senior director, exploring how professionals with multiple minority identities can navigate career success while maintaining cultural authenticity. She provides practical frameworks for measuring success beyond traditional metrics and offers strategies for implementing these measures in daily work life. In this episode, you'll learn: How to recognize and address the hidden costs of traditional corporate success, including code-switching and communication challenges A three-part framework for creating personalized success metrics: Cultural integration metrics Community impact indicators Personal wellness measures Practical strategies for setting boundaries and protecting your time Methods for building strategic alliances and long-term professional relationships Tips for creating and maintaining effective support systems through mentorship and peer networks Redefining Success: A Guide for Professionals with Intersectional Identities In a recent episode of "Thriving in Intersectionality," host Lola Adeyemo explores how professionals with multiple minority identities can navigate career success while maintaining authenticity. Drawing from a mentoring conversation with a senior director, she addresses the unique challenges faced by individuals balancing cultural values with corporate expectations. The Hidden Costs of Traditional Success Corporate success often comes with unseen challenges for professionals with intersectional identities. Daily code-switching, managing different communication styles, and translating experiences for colleagues who don't share similar backgrounds can be mentally exhausting. The pressure to conform to Western workplace norms while staying true to cultural values creates an additional layer of complexity in career advancement. Creating Meaningful Success Metrics Adeyemo introduces three key areas for measuring success beyond traditional corporate benchmarks. First, cultural integration metrics help assess how well your role aligns with your values and ability to bring authentic perspectives to decision-making. Second, community impact indicators measure how effectively you're lifting others while climbing the corporate ladder. Third, personal wellness measures ensure you're maintaining cultural connections and energy for community engagement outside work. Practical Strategies for Implementation The podcast offers actionable steps for integrating these success metrics into daily work life. These include leading meetings that encourage diverse perspectives, documenting impacts in both traditional and cultural terms, and setting clear boundaries. Adeyemo emphasizes the importance of being "protective of your yeses" and building strategic alliances for long-term career growth. She also highlights the value of finding or creating support systems through mentorship, coaching, and peer networks. Moving Forward The episode concludes by encouraging professionals to think holistically about career planning. Rather than focusing solely on traditional career goals, Adeyemo advocates for incorporating life goals and personal values into success metrics. This comprehensive approach helps maintain energy and excitement about career growth while staying authentic to one's cultural identity. We would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.

For this episode of Immigrants in Corporate podcast, our host Lola Adeyemo speaks with Gianna Driver, a recognized Global HR industry speaker and leader, who has carved out an impressive career path that exemplifies the power of embracing one's unique identity and experiences. We dive into Gianna's journey, exploring the intersections that define her and the invaluable lessons she has to share with aspiring professionals. Finding Your Path in HR Gianna's career journey is a testament to embracing your unique identity and allowing opportunities to find you. As she explains to podcast host, Lola, she didn't set out to work in HR, but her natural inclination towards people-focused roles led her there organically. Starting in corporate insurance, Gianna discovered her passion for the various facets of human resources from hiring and onboarding to performance management and learning and development as she naturally gravitated towards these people-focused roles while working at a small startup. What's remarkable about Gianna's story is how she didn't let preconceived notions about HR hold her back. Instead, she leaned into her strengths and interests, allowing her career to unfold in a way that aligned with her values and skills. This adaptability and openness to new possibilities is a lesson for any early-to-mid career professional navigating their path. Navigating Intersectionality When discussing the concept of intersectionality with Lola, Gianna demonstrates a nuanced understanding of how our multiple identities shape our experiences. As a Filipina-American woman from a lower socioeconomic background, Gianna recognizes the importance of acknowledging and embracing the various facets that make up her identity, including being a mother. She notes how these intersections can evolve over time, and how it's crucial to remain open-minded and reflective about the ways in which our identities inform our perspectives and experiences. Gianna's willingness to share her own journey with intersectionality is a powerful example of the value in being vulnerable and transparent. By highlighting the complexities of her identity, she not only helps others see themselves reflected in her story but also demonstrates the importance of creating spaces where people can fully embrace all aspects of who they are, even if certain identities may not be immediately at the forefront Advice for Aspiring Professionals Drawing on her own experiences, Gianna offers invaluable advice for early-to-mid career professionals, particularly those from underrepresented or marginalized backgrounds. She emphasizes the importance of overcoming the fear of failure, reminding us that the fear of failure often stifles more dreams than failure itself. Gianna encourages taking calculated risks and leaps of faith, as the journey itself is filled with valuable learning opportunities, regardless of the outcome. Gianna also underscores the significance of building a supportive community and actively seeking out mentors and allies. She acknowledges that navigating predominantly white, male-dominated spaces can be challenging, but stresses the importance of finding safe havens where one can be their authentic self and be seen and accepted in their fullness, including their imperfections. Embracing the Future of Work As Gianna looks towards the future of the workplace, she emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and intentionality. She encourages professionals to take the time to reflect on their strengths, passions, and natural inclinations, and then proactively seek out opportunities that align with these qualities, while also remaining open-minded and adaptable. By embracing our intersections, cultivating self-awareness, and building supportive communities, we can pave the way for a more inclusive and fulfilling career journey.

Today we are joined by Gavi, co-host of the Leaving Eden podcast which examines the destructive nature of cults and extremist religions and the lives impacted. Gavi shares with us about his love of cooking, the time he bet on a horse at the Kentucky Derby, and his childhood dream of being a rockstar. But is he the Leo with Sag Rising or the Taurus with Jupiter on the Ascendant? Sarah is backed by the Gambling Astrologer, Bill Walker. Every week our astrologers look to the stars to match our guest to one of two birth charts. One chart belongs to our guest and one is a red herring. Are their chances only a skeptical 50/50 or can the powers of Astrology point Team Astrology in the right direction at least 80% of the time?   Will they do it? Can YOU do it?   To play along, check the two birth charts and case files for this episode and every episode at ⁠http://astrodetectivespod.com⁠    Check out our post-case astro chat, DEBRIEF which is available right now on Patreon with a Free Membership!
