Best of BA: C-Suite Edition ft. Black Gi...

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

This week, Mandi Money  brings the BAFAM a special “Best Of” mash-up episode featuring two powerhouse women who’ve carved out space in the C-suite and beyond. From boldly leaving corporate America to building whole new tables (not just getting a seat at one), these conversations are all about self-belief, wealth-building, and trusting your gut—even when everyone else thinks you’re wild for betting on yourself.

This ep revisits conversations with:

Christina Mancini, CEO of Black Girls Code [link to full EP]
Gabrielle Gambrell, media executive at Hachette Book Group [link to full ep]

Both women share the real talk behind their boldest career pivots, what it takes to thrive in rare professional spaces, and why betting on yourself is the ultimate flex.
