Soul Searching with Harpreet Kaur: Why blend in when you were born to stand out Soul Searching

    • Personal Journals

Our guest today on Practical Wisdom Stories: Soul Searching is Harpreet Kaur. She shares insight on finding your superpower, becoming a confident speaker and developing resilience. Her practical wisdom: Stand out. Be resilient. Be hopeful. #Whyblendinwhenyoureborntostandout

My favorite part? At minute 16: witness her journey in becoming a speaker and watch her first ever live video interview from 3 years ago when she shared a story with me on overcoming prejudice and embracing diversity.
She also shares "I had rejections, bad interviews, managers who didn’t see the potential in me, surviving illness. I asked myself 'what did I learn from these? How can I make sure my teams, my mentees learn from my experience?' Grieve for a moment. Then become even stronger. Life’s an ocean. Waves keep hitting you, but keep learning to surf higher and higher."

Harpreet is a 1st gen senior technical product manager at #Microsoft with proven track record of leading business/digital transformation, managing teams and shipping high quality products/solutions. She is well known speaker and thought leader across the industry on technology, branding and diversity & inclusion. She's a mom of 2 and an abstract artist. Check her out at whyblendin.com
