    Destigmatizing Mental Healthcare for Pan-Asian Communities

    Carrie Zhang is the founder of Asian Mental Health Project or AMHP, an initiative that aims to educate and empower Pan-Asian communities in making mental healthcare more accessible. Founded in 2019, the project currently uses social media, multimedia content creation and community events to de-stigmatize topics of mental health, critical social issues and provide tangible resources. A daughter of Chinese and Taiwanese immigrants, she graduated from the University of Southern California and currently works as a communications and marketing professional in the tech, entertainment and music space. In our conversation we talk about AMHP - what inspired her to start it, what she’s learned, and what’s next for AMHP in the next year. We’ll go into her personal mental health journey, why she chose to cater her project to the Pan Asian experience, cultural stigma, and of course, how she’s becoming.

    Translating Stories through Data, Technology, and Marketing

    Tagan Horton, known as TheTagan, is a storyteller translating knowledge through data, marketing and technology. Currently, she is a podcaster and tech innovation strategist. She founded Founders Get Funds, a podcast and newsletter, to reduce misinformation targeted to founders building businesses from the ground up. She is also the co-host of "The Lay of The Land", a weekly podcast mapping tech innovation in Cleveland. In our conversation we talk about Founders Get Funds - what inspired her to start it, lessons she’s learned, and what’s next for FGF in the next year. I’m glad I caught her at this point of developing her business, because she’s tried a few different things with it, and is taking time to learn, question, and decide how to best tackle the problem that she sees: misinformation around funding. We go back to how she’s developed as a fintech leader. From studying abroad in Senegal getting hands-on experience in economic development through L’Entente Feminine to her time in Cleveland working at a startup, and of course, how she’s becoming.  Need more info?
