I know that as a black woman, a lot of the content that I see that would be relevant to me is around hair tutorials. That's great, but I also want to see people that look like me that are talking about other things, like finance, and love, and relationships, and careers." – Ashley BaxterIn This Episode:- Redressing the balance of the representation of single women of color in the media- How Sumi sped through childhood, attempting to live up to her parents’ expectations- Sumi’s “success” of owning a government consulting firm - The search for self-discovery - The creative pursuit of launching a career as a recording artist- Ashley’s story of growing up in a multi-generational household in East Texas- How Ashley created her own job title as Digital PR Person - Ashley and Sumi set their intention for the show And so much more!Connect with Sumi Krishnan:- Instagram Connect with Ashley Baxter:- Website

Let’s be honest. Being a happy, fulfilled and successful modern woman requires a new set of skills and perspectives that more of us need to be talking about! We’re having babies later, partnering differently, and facing challenges our ancestors never had to deal with, all while looking to create financial independence and make our unique contribution to the world within a fragile social and political environment. This is the Women Rewriting the Rules podcast. The show that helps you navigate those challenges while re-wiring the social conditioning that has affected us all since birth! If you’re a modern woman who wants to feel supported as you build your ambitious life – whether you’re looking to create better relationships, take control of your finances and career, pursue a passion, or achieve what feels like an audacious goal… you’re in the right place. Your hosts, a USC professor and a Harvard grad, are both high-achievers who have faced their share of challenges. Personal challenges like imposter syndrome, fears & insecurities as well as cultural challenges like discrimination, structural inequalties, and the weight of societal and familial expectations, They’ve both navigated their way through much of the maze and have something to say about it! Ashley, born to a single mother in small town Texas, worked her way up the corporate ladder at Fortune 500 brands and eventually into academia as an adjunct professor and curriculum creator.. Sumi, the daughter of immigrants, was nudged down a traditional path by her parents, building her first multi-million dollar consulting firm by the age of 26. After more than a decade subconsciously living for the approval of her Dad, she finally gained the courage to re-write the rules and is now a recording artist in LA. Here's the thing - you're not living in a 90's rom-com where you'd be stuck playing the role of a funny sidekick. This is real life. You're the main character. Women Rewriting the Rules will help you take control of your story, figure out what’s holding you back and set you up to start fulfilling your widest (and most practical) dreams.
