Momma Meli the Manager Melissa Toledo

I'm very aware I've been lucky enough to work for tech companies in Corporate America during my two pregnancies. I'm grateful for having the ability to take time off while getting paid. That said, I had NO idea how to go about it and made a handful of (work) mistakes during my first pregnancy leading to many tears, missed opportunities, and more. As always, this is my personal experience & point of view, being shared not to blame anyone but instead to empower others!

Opening episode for 2024 and oh all the changes! It's been quite an eventful last 6 months and thanks to all of those changes, I look forward to podcasting this year. Stay tuned!

In this episode I'm joined by the genuine, passionate Upasana Roy who is a raising AE all-star at Twilio Segment. In this episode we chat about her college and post-college work experiences, what led her to Sales, and how it was growing up as a brown girl in the midwest! I especially love her story around self-identifying after having the ability to live in America and India.

Another episode, another guest! Luyba joins us for a conversation around women in the corporate and tech world, and how she navigated her career over the years. Starting at IBM straight out of college, I'm definitely amazed at all she has accomplished thus far and am so grateful she is apart of our greater team here at Segment.
