Experience matters. Everyone always tells new design graduates that it's best to work for someone else while you find your feet. But at what point do you know that you are ready to strike out on your own? While on the surface this conversation with emerging German fashion designer Essie Kramer seems to be about the joys of sourcing old ecclesiastical textiles and turning them into provocative new ensembles, or how digital printing is democratising object-making, I think it's really about confidence and finding your flow. When you know, you know! Essie is one to watch. I'm always excited to meet next gen fashion talent. Featuring young designers has been a pillar of Wardrobe Crisis from the start.I've been lucky enough to be a judge on many new gen competitions over the years, including Redress in Hong Kong, the Circular Design Challenge in India and Australia's National Designer Award. I got to write a bit for Sara Maino's Vogue Italia Talents project, and covered the BFC's New Gen for years.Every series, we've run at least one (sometimes more) Episodes focused on new designers around the world.

As the daughter of immigrants, Sahaj Kaur Kohli grew up understanding what it means to straddle multiple cultures at once. She wrestled with questions like what it meant to forge one's path, establishing personal values while embracing one's origins; if prioritizing mental health meant a rejection of culture; how to set boundaries and engage in self-care when family and community are so important. Even after becoming a therapist herself, she saw those same gaps in the mental health world, leading her to wonder, like so many children of immigrants: what about us? Kohli's latest book, But What Will People Say? Navigating Mental Health, Identity, Love, and Family Between Cultures, weaves together personal narratives with research. She offers advice and tools for everything from navigating generational trauma, guilt, and boundaries, to breaking down stigmas around therapy and celebrating cultural duality. While mental health is arguably less stigmatized than before, models can often be individualistic and Eurocentric. Kohli aims to both democratize and decolonize the way we think about mental health and self-help, shifting the paradigm, incorporating community building, and speaking to those who are left out of the dominant narratives. Sahaj Kaur Kohli, MaEd, LGPC, is the founder of Brown Girl Therapy (@BrownGirlTherapy), the first and largest mental health and wellness community organization for adult children of immigrants; a licensed therapist; and a columnist for the Washington Post's advice column Ask Sahaj. Sahaj's words and work have been featured in Today, Good Morning America, CNN, TED, The New York Times, HuffPost, and more. Sahaj also serves as a consultant, educator, and international speaker. She has sat on panels and delivered workshops and keynotes for nonprofits, higher education institutions, and the White House. This is her first book.​ Ruchika T. Malhotra is the best-selling author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work. Ruchika is also the founder of Candour, an inclusion strategy practice.

Can you think of occasions where you wanted to say something, but couldn't? Perhaps you stopped yourself out of fear, or due to outside pressures. Having a seat at the table doesn't necessarily mean that your voice is welcome. A new book is aiming to examine the influence of silence and offer ways that we can begin to dismantle it to find our voices at home and work to shift the paradigm. In Unlearning Silence: How to Speak Your Mind, Unleash Talent, and Live More Fully author Elaine Lin Hering explores the difficulty that can come with speaking up, especially when there may be incentives to stay silent to avoid unwanted consequences. Hering discusses how we as a society have learned to be silent, how we have benefited from silence, and how we have silenced other people. She also offers advice on how we can choose another way,  creating new patterns, becoming more complete versions of ourselves, engaging more fully with our talents, and helping others do the same. Elaine Lin Hering is a facilitator, speaker, and writer. She works with organizations and individuals to build skills in communication, collaboration, and conflict management. In her career, Elaine has worked on six continents and with a wide range of corporate, government, and nonprofit clients. She has trained mental health professionals, political officials, religious communities, and leaders at companies including American Express, Capital One, Google, Nike, Novartis, Shell, Pixar, and the Red Cross.

“In the banquet hall of Ravindra Natya Mandir, Prabhadevi, Swami Swatmanandaji was invited by the Ruchika Club (A wing) today on 24th June. The new committee was taking over today and it was the first meeting under them. We thank the founder members Smt. Asha Jhunjhunwala, Smt. Sarita shroff and the committee of Ruchika Club (A Wing) for the opportunity. The topic chosen was " Spirituality in Practice". Swamiji addressed the approx 90 ladies present there in Hindi and made it very relatable. He made the talk interactive and very engaging. There was lots to implement and carry over in our lives when Swamiji took a verse from the Bhagavad Geeta and elaborated upon it. Satvik food, sweetness in speech, detachment in relationships, dexterity in action, equanimity in acceptance of karma phala, purity and clarity in thought and dissolution of the ahankara was explained so beautifully , interspersed with numerous examples and lot of humour to make the subject clear to everyone present. The talk was extremely inspiring and very well received.Everyone was invited to join the devi groups as Swamiji spoke about them. From the Chinmaya Sagar Zonal committee, the President Smt. Reena Rajpal, Vice President Smt. Shruti Somani and Secretary Smt. Sujata Murali were also introduced to the members and Reenaji thanked them for giving a stall to Chinmaya Mission in their NGO category and extending support to our Mission, in the Ruchika bazaar that they host ( this year the dates are 1st, 2nd August).

“There was not a moment that I came into the workplace and thought that I would belong or be treated properly or equally.” Ruchika Tulshyan, a workplace inclusion expert, paraphrases an interview with Ijeoma Oluo, a thought leader on race in America, for Tulshyan's book, Inclusion on Purpose.  In the conversation featured in this episode, these two women talk about Ruchika's misassumptions about race and gender in the workplace in her first book, and the intersection of race and gender as it differently and more severely impacts women of color. They discuss the immigrant experience, the subtle and overt ways immigrants and non-Black people of color are encouraged to hold up white supremacy and propagate anti-Blackness, and how we work to dismantle these and build workplaces where women of color feel safe, respected, and supported.  Learn more about the story and find the transcript on radioproject.org.

I am a huge Ruchika Tulshyan fangirl. You'll learn why as you listen to this replay of our conversation from last year! Since then, Ruchika has operationalized a new way to highlight the voices of historically underrecognized folks with her #AmplifyJuly campaign. As she shared, if you have a platform and influence, you have a responsibility to use your privilege in a tangible, actionable way to amplify the voices of others.If you are building your influence and thought leadership, how could you take a page out of Ruchika's book and turn over the mic? We touch upon this in our conversation from last year, as well as recognizing systems of oppression as the cause of imposter syndrome, reframing mindset barriers around leadership and visibility, and how to make inclusion a daily practice in your life.In this episode:[03:37] Ruchika's story of becoming a guide in inclusion[14:15] Recognizing systems of oppression as the cause of imposter syndrome[20:54] Supporting women of color entrepreneurs and executives [22:49] Reframing mindset barriers around leadership and visibility [35:30] How to make inclusion a daily practice in your life [42:40] Ruchika's big dreamy vision of the futureTo read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:Discover more about Ruchika's Amplify July Campaign here.Read Ruchika Tulshyan and Jodi-Ann Burey's paradigm-shifting Harvard Business Review article: Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome.

In this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Aditya Bagrodia and Dr. Ruchika Talwar, a urologic oncology fellow at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, discuss her personal journey to becoming an advocate and how other urologists can get involved in policy making. --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn free AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/wWaqJd --- SHOW NOTES First, Dr. Talwar explains how she got interested in advocacy. Before college, she had always been interested in issues and causes, so she originally wanted to be a politician. After participating in a summer program, she realized she didn't want to be a politician and instead pursued undergraduate majors in biology and legal studies. To her, medicine and politics were always intertwined. She was active in the American Medical Association (AMA) in medical school and the American Urologic Association (AUA) in residency. Next, Dr. Talwar explains what advocacy means to her, which is picking a topic and trying to make a broad impact. She chooses to advocate through organized medicine because she believes that organized medicine creates a unified voice necessary to guide politicians in making correct policy decisions. Although she participates in advocacy at a national level through AUA conferences and Capitol Hill visits, there are also other levels of advocacy to engage in, such as advocacy at the department or state level. She emphasizes that advocacy has helped her fight burnout, as she feels like she has a voice in the larger medical system. Dr. Talwar cites many historical examples of the benefits that advocacy from urological societies has brought to patients. For example, organized urology has done much to improve insurance coverage of PSA screenings and Medicare policies. During these times, she notes that updating and checking emails from the AUA and forwarding emails to colleagues is critical. Another way that urologists have been able to advocate for health equity is to share patient stories with lawmakers, which may make a bigger impact than sharing research statistics. She mentions that the AUA policy arm is able to connect urologists with their specific congressional representatives and sends out legislative priority surveys to AUA members. She encourages other trainees to get support from their program leadership to pursue advocacy by sharing tangible ways that they can improve their department and relaying patient stories. The doctors also discuss differences in generational perspectives when it comes to advocacy. Older generations of urologists may not think the AUA should play an active role in policy making, but younger generations think AUA should be more active in policy making. Dr. Talwar encourages younger urologists to apply for leadership positions, especially female and minority urologists. Finally, the doctors discuss the upcoming AUA Summit, an annual fly-in advocacy event. During this conference, urologists will be able to decide the AUA's legislative policies for the year, such as coding and reimbursement, retention and diversity of workforce, and research funding. Urologists will be able to meet with their congressional offices and representatives as well. --- RESOURCES 6th Annual AUA Summit Registration: https://www.auasummit.org/ AUA Public Policy & Advocacy Committees: https://www.auanet.org/about-us/aua-governance/committees/public-policy-and-advocacy-committees

Swami Vivekananda once said that “Get extensity with intensity, but not at its expense.” I guess our today's guest has been trying to achieve both very elegantly in her practice, breadth, and depth at the same time. Happy to have Ruchika Nambiar with us on Audiogyan. Ruchika is an artist, designer, and writer. Her work ranges across media, from publishing books, graphic memoirs, interactive social media stories, design consulting practice for brands and businesses as well as a mentorship program for young artists and designers. We'll be talking about what it takes to be an interdisciplinary designer. She has some really well-documented videos on her youtube channel and website. Questions What is your definition of design and what's your definition of art? What does it really mean to be an interdisciplinary designer or an artist? Is it an outcome to input? How do you compare it with being a T-shaped designer? Can one start being interdisciplinary? As Massimo Vignelli says, “if you can design one thing, you can design everything”. How would you respond to that? What comes first for such designers - Thought or the medium to explore? In your talk “10 Practical Realities of a Multi-Disciplinary Practice” on youtube - you mention, “use your best skill first” - isn't it difficult to become best at one thing while doing another? I have heard multiple times (recently by Varun Grover) that if you wish to write, do all other things than writing. Then write. Basically, expose yourself to many other things which fuel your creativity. What does an interdisciplinary artist or a designer consume? [personal question] From whatever I gather after researching you and seeing your work, it's quite a feat. Plus you talk about being a project manager, handling billing, building relationships, and so on… Do you feel you are spread thin? What keep you motivated on so many levels?

You know that you've got work to do but you're not sure where to start.

You want to be a good ally to people in under-represented or under-estimated groups but you're not sure how to.This podcast with Ruchika Tulshyan gives you practical ways to address these points, based on her extensive research, consulting work, and personal experience. We talk about:How recruiters get it wrong when they talk about cultural fit.How to tackle biases throughout your organisation.Your responsibility if you have privilege.How to practise allyship productively.What it takes to ask the right questions of others About Ruchika:Ruchika Tulshyan is the best-selling author of "Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work,” published by MIT Press and available now.

Diversity is key to a company's success and bottom line– and yet women are leaving the workforce in higher numbers than ever before. That's one of many reasons this conversation is so important. In this episode, we'll discuss the difference in personality and behavior that takes place before and after the ego is developed. We also talk about ways society has trained us to rely solely on other's expectations (minute 11), and how to break the mentality.

Books Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work And The Diversity Advantage: Fixing Gender Inequality in the Workplace

Ruchika Tulshyan is the author of Inclusion on Purpose and The Diversity Advantage. She is also the founder of Candour, a company that supports inclusion strategies in the workplace. Ruchika describes her personal journey that led to her focus on inclusion and how the biggest barrier is not recognizing your own role in changing inclusion. In particular, how our stories of working hard get in the way of seeing our privilege. Ruchika provides several helpful frameworks to embrace the discomfort of addressing inclusion and making a difference.

Julie and Casey chat with Ruchika Tulshyan (author, speaker, and founder of Candour) about her viral HBR article on imposter syndrome, how to handle feedback (giving it and receiving it), and the gift of discomfort. Along the way, we dive into some of our favorite big subjects (authenticity, executive presence, etc.) and why the most important question to ask is: “for whom?” Thank you to our Season 4 sponsor, Armoire!

TOP TAKEAWAYS: What do you do with conflicting feedback (the “Goldilocks” problem — “you're too strong / you're not strong enough” etc)?  Feel your feelings, investigate it, think about it, check in with your tribe . . . and then remember that you're existing within biased systems, and you can still stand in your power. When it comes to the “big subjects” like authenticity, leadership, executive presence, the operative question is “for whom?” i.e, “For whom is this the “right” kind of authenticity?” The foundation of so much discomfort is coming to terms with the fact that the world is not binary – that two things  can be true at the same time (“I have experience marginalization AND I have privilege” or “my intentions were good AND I caused harm to another person”). We first have to learn to live with that complexity, and then additionally we have to learn how to communicate it. LESSON: Discomfort and confidence can (and probably will) exist at the same time. And . . . what if a little imposter syndrome is a good thing?   Ruchika Tulshyan is the best-selling author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work (MIT Press). The book was described as “transformative” by Dr. Brené Brown. She's also the founder of Candour, an inclusion strategy practice. A former international business journalist, Ruchika is a regular contributor to The New York Times and Harvard Business Review. As a keynote speaker, Ruchika has addressed audiences at organizations like NASA, Pixar, Google and the U.S. Congress.  Ruchika co-wrote a paradigm-shifting article, Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome for Harvard Business Review, with Jodi-Ann Burey. The article was named among 20 most impactful HBR articles of all time. Best of all, people all over the world have said it helped change their relationship with the concept of imposter syndrome!

How did we become so deeply divided? In 2019, hate crimes reached a ten-year high in the United States. In 2020, 40% of each political party deemed supporters of the opposing party “downright evil.” In addition to division across political lines, rampant discord is likewise rooted in other hot-button issues like race, religion, gender, and class. Despite one in five Americans suffering from chronic loneliness, it seems that we are collectively determined to distance ourselves from those who aren't like us. But what if there were a set of scientifically grounded techniques that could help us overcome our differences, create empathy, and forge lasting connections? That's where Stanford University professor Geoffrey Cohen comes in. In his book Belonging: The Science of Creating Connection and Bridging Divides, Cohen examines the issues that poison our communal existence and undermine our sense of belonging, and offers solutions to help us establish connections using even the smallest of gestures. Even skeptics can appreciate these research-based practices, which have been shown to lessen political polarization, improve motivation and performance in school and work, combat racism, and enhance health and well-being. Cohen's work may be helpful for parents, educators, managers, or anyone else who wants to foster harmonious interpersonal relationships and healthier environments. Belonging reminds us that our personal need to belong is mirrored in other people. Geoffrey L. Cohen is professor of psychology and the James G. March Professor of Organizational Studies in Education and Business at Stanford University. Prof. Cohen's research examines processes that shape people's sense of belonging and self and implications for social problems. He studies the big and small threats to belonging and self-integrity that people encounter in school, work, and health care settings, and strategies to create more inclusive spaces for people from all walks of life. He has long been inspired by Kurt Lewin's quip, “The best way to try to understand something is to try to change it.” He lives in Palo Alto, California.

When we cover these cases, the ones that hit the hardest are those with the clearest injustice: deep-rooted, disturbing, and plain to see. Cases where the very ones tasked with righting injustice — our parents, our schools, our police — are the ones who perpetrate it. It makes all of our blood boil to hear of lives destroyed, families torn apart, futures snatched over trivialities. If you feel this way too, this case is your worst nightmare come to life: a nightmare one 14-year-old girl had to live through 32 years ago. This is a case that shook India to its core. This is the story of Ruchika Girhotra.

She is on the Thinkers50 Radar list and named as one of Hive Learning's Most Influential D&I Professionals for the past two years. In this conversation, Ruchika and I discuss how leaders can adapt their hiring practices to attract more diverse candidates — and ultimately support inclusion inside their organizations. We discuss the importance of what to both include and avoid in job postings. Plus, we examine how well-intended interview practices can sometimes have unintended results on supporting diversity and inclusion. Key Points Make the hiring process transparent from start to finish. Include an authentic equal opportunity statement. Refrain from using certain words in job listings. Examples include: rockstar, ninja, hacker, guru, manage, build, aggressive, fearless, independent, analytic, and assertive. Emphasize skills and experience over professional degrees. Avoid panel interviews and refrain from asking questions or having conversations about culture fit.
