From Corporate to Campfire: The Inspiration for Stories We Haven’t Shared with Shanti Joy Gold and Mary Tess Rooney
In the debut episode of Stories We Haven't Shared, Shanti Joy Gold (she/her) is interviewed by Mary Tess Rooney (she/her) and introduces the podcast: a campfire-style interview series where underrepresented voices share their experiences navigating into the already-complicated career landscape. Whether you're seeking guidance in your career or you’re an ally looking to deepen your understanding, the podcast offers a space for learning and connection. Shanti openly shares her own personal and professional journey as a white, gay, cisgender woman and her transition from a career in corporate sales leadership to becoming a professional coach. She recounts two coming-out-at-work stories, both of which were clumsy (and humorous in retrospect) and ultimately led to acceptance.
