Description

In today's episode, we are privileged to have Dee Poku, the founder, and CEO of The WIE Suite, a marketer, community builder, and communication leader. Dee, who was born in the UK, but raised in London and Ghana, now raises her son in New York. She shares with us how the experience of straddling two different cultures growing up has significantly shaped her work today.

Dee discusses the unique challenges women face in business, from feeling insecure as an entrepreneur to dealing with fewer opportunities and a perception of competition. She shares her personal journey and the mindset shift she had to make. From microaggressions in a predominantly white school to facing challenges as a woman of color in the fundraising process, Dee's experiences are undeniably valuable.

She emphasizes the importance of women supporting each other in business, the power of personal stories in creating change, and the need to use one's platforms to uplift other women. So buckle up for this inspiring conversation with Dee Poku, whose story will have a profound impact on us all.
