The Strength of Going Slow with Moj Mahdara

Welcome to Touch of Truth, the podcast that connects you to the unsung heroes and power players of our industry as they share the human truth behind the glossy experience. No schmooze, no rehearsal, just pure unadulterated honesty. Their stories might just make you a little more successful and a lot happier.

In episode two, Jackie sits down with founder, investor, and entrepreneur, Moj Mahdara. During the discussion, Moj talks about her career trajectory, leaving home at 16, and the role that music and culture played in providing her the confidence to make that decision.

She also talks about how she was treated by the investment community as a queer Iranian-American woman, and the pressure she’s put on herself to succeed and break down the barriers so others like her can follow the path, meeting Hillary Clinton, her predictions for the future.
