    Episode 66: Samina Bari: Exceptional Business Leader and Master Tortilla Flipper

    The mindset of Flipping the Tortilla is about refusing to accept situations that are suboptimal to our sense of self of well-being. People who live by this philosophy find a way to change their circumstances by refusing to accept the status quo. Through planning, creating momentum, and sheer hell-bent determination they find a way to thrive. Samina Bari epitomizes this mindset. She is the daughter of immigrant Pakistani and Indian Muslims. She talks about the oppressive expectations of her mother, the supportive nature of her physician father, and the struggle of straddling cultures. Samina became a highly successful executive and then went on to start a business where she is a sought-after healthcare strategist to CEOs. Just a year ago, she suddenly and unexpectedly lost her husband and the father of their two young children. Samina is such an inspiration and shares invaluable insights about overcoming adversity and the gift of community.
