Deepika Sandhu: Talk Authentically With Me

Deepika Sandhu is a Silicon Valley based Business Executive, Author of Hello Universe, It’s Me, motivational speaker and coach. She is also a mother and an online influencer. Her shared wisdom through her Instagram stories and live streams are based on the account of her real-life happenings. From the pretty, to the normal, to the not-so-great, she holds nothing back and reveals her authentic day-to-day.  “I was winning at the game of life. If I was in a giant football stadium, the big monitors over the field would be flashing in bold caps “YOU ARE KILLING IT.” Problem is, I was not only killing it. It was killing me. None of my checklists, none of my to-do lists, and none of the activities or people that were filling my life were making me happy. I was exhausted, depleted, sad, unhealthy, and just dragging myself through my days. I needed to throw all those checklists out the window. So I did the only thing I knew how to do as a busy, overachieving, type-a personality –  I scheduled a breakdown, manifested a new life. No guru, shaman, or travel to exotic lands required.” Deepika's mission is to inspire busy, hard-working professionals to go from overwhelmed, demotivated, burnt out and exhausted to living a life that is balanced, fulfilled and joyful in every way. Now through her speaking events, courses and book Hello Universe, It’s Me, Deepika helps people just like you turn burnout into breakthroughs.  You can find Deepika at: https://hellouniverseitsme.com  [https://hellouniverseitsme.com ] Follow her on Instagram @deepikasandhu.co [https//instagram.com/deepikasandhu.co] Feel free to connect with her directly at: hello@deepikasandhu.co  [//hello@deepikasandhu.co ]

Women’s History Month Special #BreakTheBias

Women have been rewriting the agenda, many years in the making. However, the last few years have been full of contradictions.

Interview with Dr. Wayne Edwards #FromTheArchives

From time to time, it’s important to look back in time and reflect. This week, for Black History Month, we bring you back to the year 2021, when I had the honor to sit down with SUNY Old Westbury’s Chair of Communications Dr. Wayne Edwards. We explored his deep roots as a music executive with CBS, Mercury and Arista Records (among the many others) where he worked with executive greats like L.A. Reid. Edwards was also notorious for signing the legendary MC Hammer and brought the hit U Can’t Touch This to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts. We also talked about his journey to academia and reflections on his days in the industry as a black male. His new book, Can’t Touch This is out everywhere. Get your copy today!
