Thrilled to have the brilliant & multi-faceted Christina Wallace as a guest on this ep of The Breadwinners! She’s so multi-faceted that her facets have facets. (Also she is a math genius so she will point out that a facet can’t have another facet, and we love that about her.) She teaches Entrepreneurship at Harvard Business School, she is a classically trained musician, she is a math prodigy, a Broadway producer (of numerous Tony-winning and nominated plays and musicals) and the author of “The Portfolio Life: How to Future-Proof Your Career, Avoid Burnout, and Build a Life Bigger than Your Business Card,” which by now you can tell she lives by. I loved talking to Christina about her lifelong love of math, how Broadway is like a startup, why storytelling is innately human, and when exactly that straight track can turn into spaghetti. It’s a terrific conversation and well worth your time.

“PhD in Pivoting with Christina Wallace” - The Breadwinners Season 7, Episode 5.

If you’re wondering whether your role is becoming obsolete, maybe it’s time to build the next one.
Every job Paulita David has ever had didn’t exist before she stepped into it. She’s the US Large Customer Sales Lead at Reddit, spent a decade at Google, and became the highest-ranking Latina at the company. Google studied her teams to figure out why they outperformed. The answer? An unconscious bias toward diversity.
We talk about why diverse teams win, why the best careers are the ones you invent yourself, and the advice she gives everyone starting out: boxers don’t punch themselves in the face.

To the women winning bread.
To the ones holding it together while everything shifts. To the ones who kept going when the playbook stopped working.
To the ones who built something that didn’t exist before they stepped into it.
To the ones who said yes when they weren’t sure.
To the ones who set boundaries and meant it.
To the ones who are still figuring it out.

The systems change. The stories change. And still we rise.

Happy International Women’s Day.
