    Breaking the Mold: Marivell's Rise in Cybersecurity & Leadership

    Meet Marivell, a proud Latina from NYC who turned curiosity into a career in cybersecurity, governance, risk & compliance (GRC), and leadership. 🔑 Highlights that resonate: Curiosity as a Superpower → Asking the “dumb” questions launched her career in tech. Representation Matters → A Latina voice proving that you don’t need a perfect path: just grit, curiosity, and community. Breaking Silos → Cybersecurity’s biggest challenge isn’t tech, it’s the lack of collaboration. GRC Reframed → Policies aren’t boring; they’re the foundation of cybersecurity programs. Generative AI → Not a threat if you have foundational knowledge but a danger if you don’t. Mentorship with Intention → Don’t just ask. Bring purpose, an agenda, and be ready for the give-and-take. Optimism Always Wins → Inspired by Kimberly S. Reed’s book, Marivell reminds us that resilience + optimism = survival in cyber. 💬 Quote to share: “I am proof you don’t need a perfect path. You need grit, curiosity, and community.” – Marivell ✨ Keywords to drive engagement: #Cybersecurity #LatinaInTech #Mentorship #Curiosity #DiversityInCyber #GRC #AI #Resilience #RepresentationMatters #WomenInCyber Support the show Support the Channel - Click the bell to have notifications, like & subscribe!

    Beyond Burnout: Coming Home to Yourself with Nicole Lilly

    In the latest episode of Inclusive Cyber, I had the honor of speaking with Nicole Lilly, founder of Deeply Devoted Lilly, somatic coach, and former corporate wellness strategist. We didn’t talk tech. We talked about what tech often ignores—how emotional wellbeing, nervous system regulation, and inner safety are critical to sustainable performance in high-pressure fields like cybersecurity. Nicole opens up about: * Growing up in a culture where worth was tied to appearance—and how she reclaimed her health on *her* terms * Her corporate wellness career and the blind spots she noticed in how we treat mental health at work * Why we don’t ask for help, and how self-leadership shifted her relationship with discipline * What it means to "come home to yourself" and build a life rooted in compassion, curiosity, and clarity 🧠 This conversation reminded me that no productivity hack can replace the inner work required to truly show up—at work or at home. One of Nicole’s reflections that stuck with me: “There’s a difference between what you want to be and who you want to be.” 🎧 If you’re in cybersecurity—or any fast-paced field—this episode is for you. It’s not about slowing down. It’s about realigning with your values so you can lead without burning out. \#MentalHealth #CybersecurityLeadership #SomaticCoaching #WomenInTech #InclusiveCyber #BurnoutRecovery #LatinaLeadership #HumanCenteredSecurity #EmotionalWellbeing #LeadershipDevelopment #podcasthighlights  -------------------------- SHOW NOTES Nicole Lilly - LinkedIn Deeply Devoted Lilly - https://www.instagram.com/deeplydevotedlilly/ Books & Podcasts ---------------------------- 1.

    Transforming Challenges into Opportunities: Laura’s Roadmap in Cybersecurity

    In the latest episode of Inclusive Cyber, Laura shared her inspiring journey through the IT and cybersecurity world. Starting from a humble role in a school district without formal education, she quickly realized the immense opportunities available, thanks to encouragement from mentors who recognized her potential. Laura emphasized the importance of mentors, not necessarily formal educators, as critical drivers in her career. Despite a successful five-year venture as a photography entrepreneur, she returned to cybersecurity after COVID-19. Taking a strategic step back initially allowed her to build confidence, upskill, and thrive. Throughout the discussion, Laura highlighted ongoing industry debates around formal education versus certifications. She argued that while education remains invaluable, practical experience and certifications can open crucial doors, especially for those without traditional educational pathways. Looking forward, Laura aims to establish a nonprofit to support single mothers and marginalized individuals in entering cybersecurity, reinforcing her belief that empowering opportunities can transform lives significantly. Laura's story is a powerful reminder that cybersecurity is not just about technical skills—it's also about resilience, adaptability, and meaningful mentorship. #CyberSecurity #Mentorship #InclusiveCyber #CareerGrowth #EducationVsExperience #NonprofitLeadership Book Recommendations The First, the Few, the Only: How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America by Deepa Purushothaman LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-r-b3532726b/ Support the show Support the Channel - Click the bell to have notifications, like & subscribe!

    Career Pivots and Cyber Paths: Eunice's Path from Medicine to Cybersecurity

    Have you ever had to completely pivot your career dreams? On the latest Episode of Inclusive Cyber, I sat down with Eunice A. Golloh a cybersecurity professional  with a remarkable story of determination and adaptability. Eunice's journey began with dreams of becoming a doctor, but the financial challenges of medical school led her to explore other options. Thanks to a friend’s recommendation, she discovered cybersecurity—a field she knew nothing about at the time. Fast forward nearly a decade, and she’s thriving in a career she loves, pursuing her doctoral degree, and inspiring others to step into their potential. 💡 Key takeaways from our conversation: Don’t fear the pivot. Sometimes life’s biggest opportunities come disguised as detours. Certifications + determination = momentum. Eunice’s first steps into cybersecurity started with certifications, self-study, and sheer grit. Mentorship matters. She emphasized the importance of finding mentors and a support network to push you forward when you feel stuck. Know your "why." Eunice’s nonprofit, Impact Wave Initiative, is dedicated to helping young women discover their purpose through mentorship, financial literacy, and leadership workshops. 👉 What’s your “pivot” story?
