First impressions can take only 6 seconds to make! But if you’re neurodivergent, those quick judgments about you can be misleading.

That’s where the Beyond 6 Seconds podcast comes in! Join me, Carolyn Kiel, as I talk with neurodivergent entrepreneurs, creators, advocates & more about their lives and identities. Their stories shatter misconceptions, break stigma and showcase the vibrance of neurodiversity.

Dr. Ginny Baro is the CEO and founder of Fearless Women @Work, an executive coaching and career strategy company. She is also the #1 bestselling author of “Fearless Women at Work,” a motivational speaker, and a leadership expert. 

On this episode, Ginny shares her own story of immigrating from the Dominican Republic as a child, being the first person in her family to go to college (and then going on to earn her MBA and PhD) , her 26-year corporate leadership career in IT, and how her divorce compelled her to reinvent herself into the entrepreneur and leadership coach she is today.   

We discuss the importance of understanding your passion and value proposition, as well as practical advice for building relationships with mentors and sponsors at work. Ginny also describes her five powerful strategies for thriving in your career and life -- C.A.R.E.S.:  Connect, Align, Rise, Envision, Seek -- from her book “Fearless Women at Work.”
