Welcome to season 3! This is On a Mission, Episode 20!
This is a space where I get real and go deep with my guests. They are all folks who are living out their callings, paying close attention to their lives, and each doing so with special flair. I’m your host Molleen Dupree-Dominguez. I’m a minister, teacher, writer, and general people-enthusiast, and I can’t wait to share some of these thought-provoking people with you- folks who are ready to get real and go deep.

Today we’re talking to Neha Sampat. She is the Chief Executive Officer , founder, coach, and consultant at GenLead|BelongLab, where she focuses on building belonging and true inclusion. She is an expert on Imposter Syndrome and internalized bias, generational diversity, and belonging. We live in the same city… now. And it turns out – we lived in the same city 30 years ago when we were both growing up in Naperville, a large suburb of Chicago. We didn’t know each other then, but connecting about our “Naperville experiences” is an illustration of the impact of belonging. Spoiler alert: her experience as a brown-skinned child of recent immigrants from India and *my* experience as a white-skinned Irish-looking girl with two U.S.-born parents were a lot different. It’s all about belonging and not-belonging – a subject upon which Neha is now a professional expert. She is a belonging strategist and offers her skills to companies about how to foster cultures of belonging in their workplaces and she works with individuals to coach them in finding belonging at work, at home, and – most importantly, she says – within themselves. You are going to love her practical advice for unearthing your own power, her encouragement to go deep with your emotional courage, and how to foster communities of inclusion wherever you find yourself. Listen in.
