    CNBC’s Julia Boorstin On The Future Of Media & Tech

    Julia Boorstin thought she might take a year after graduating from Princeton and have some fun working at a magazine in New York City before going to grad school. As she shares with Karen Finerman on this episode of HOW SHE DOES IT, she was hired as a reporter at Fortune magazine (despite never having taken an economics class), fell in love with the world of business news, and never looked back.  Julia is now CNBC’s Senior Media & Tech Correspondent working out of the network’s Los Angeles bureau. Beyond reporting on tech mergers and interviewing titans of the media landscape, she has developed signature franchises for the network.  Among those are the CNBC Disruptor 50, which highlights “private companies transforming the economy and challenging companies in established industries.” She is also the author of When Women Lead: What They Achieve, Why They Succeed, and How We Can Learn from Them.  In it, she interviewed several female executives and combed academic research to identify the qualities and characteristics that women bring to the table and why businesses benefit from their leadership.  💬 In this episode, we explore: Why having a grateful attitude can be beneficial for leaders  The future of Artificial Intelligence / AI in business and everyday life, and why Julia believes people should engage with it, rather than fear it  The strategies Julia employed in her first job in order to be taken seriously as a young woman, plus her advice for young job-seekers today How Julia and her film producer husband manage their household with two busy careers and two young sons   The ways Julia found to grow her career, even though working out of Los Angeles, may have taken Julia off an obvious “anchor track” at CNBC.

    We’re revisiting one of our favorite conversations from Season 1, Karen’s unforgettable sit-down with comedian and actress Leanne Morgan, who proves it’s never too late to chase a dream.

In this candid and hilarious conversation, Leanne shares how she got her start selling jewelry at home parties — accidentally discovering she had the chops to make women laugh until they cried (or peed!), and how she carved her own path while raising three kids in small-town Tennessee. ✨ Topics Covered: The unlikely way Leanne discovered stand-up — during in-home jewelry sales parties Balancing comedy gigs with motherhood and midnight sets Why Leanne almost walked away from comedy in her 50s The big risk she took investing in social media (that changed everything) What Reese Witherspoon told her about finding success later in life How she keeps her sanity (and her eyelashes on) while touring three cities a weekend What happens when she forgets her jokes mid-show — and how the audience saves her The wisdom and humor she brings from generations of Southern storytellers 🔗 Resources & Links: 📲 Follow How She Does It on Instagram: @hsdipodcast👩‍💼 Learn more about Leanne Morgan and her tour at leannemorgan.com 📸 Follow Leanne on Instagram: @leannemorgancomedy👍 Follow Leanne on Facebook: Leanne Morgan Comedy🎧 New episodes drop every Tuesday.

    The Rise & Resilience of Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego

    Kate Gallego was in her mid-30s, and her life, on paper at least, seemed to be going perfectly: she was serving on the Phoenix city council, married to a congressman, and newly pregnant after having tried for some time. But within a matter of months, as she recalls, “ my life just fell upside down all at once.”   Her marriage broke up, and her mother was diagnosed with late-stage cancer.  Meanwhile, her dream job, the mayor of Phoenix, unexpectedly became available when the incumbent resigned to run for another office.  At first, she was convinced the timing wasn’t right. But with the encouragement of her supporters (and once her son started to sleep through the night), she came to understand that timing is never perfect, and sometimes you just need to jump at an opportunity.  She ran and won that special election in 2019 at the age of 37. Mayor Kate Gallego, now in her third and final term, shares with host Karen Finerman what she is doing to future-proof her city, her approach to raising her son (and what he’s taught her), and how her mother’s illness motivated her to work to make life better for residents of Phoenix.   💡 In this episode: Despite being a natural introvert, she’s learned to speak up and work a room  Why having an MBA has served her well as mayor What role Phoenix is playing to protect national security and help your smartphones run safely  How she juggles raising her son with her ex-husband, who is now a U.S. senator  The steps the city of Phoenix is taking to make the city more livable in the heat 🔗 Resources & Links: Follow How She Does It on Instagram Follow Mayor Kate Gallego on Instagram Follow Mayor Kate Gallego on LinkedIn 🎧 New episodes of How She Does It drop every Tuesday.
