    • C-Suite Struggles: The unique barriers that exist for people of color aspiring to executive roles, and how these challenges can turn the dream of career success into a seemingly unattainable goal.
    • Impact on the 9-to-5 Grind: How colorism affects everyday work experiences, job satisfaction, and the mental health of employees who constantly battle systemic discrimination.
    • Breaking the Glass Ceiling: Strategies and stories from professionals who have successfully navigated these challenges and tips for creating more inclusive and equitable workplaces.

    Join us as we unpack the complexities of colorism in the corporate world and explore whether the dream of achieving career success is truly within reach—or just a pipe dream—for people of color.
