What is your Passion - Feed it with Karen Horne- 2021 #TBT - Episode 110
Karen Horne, DEI Executive at Warner Bros. Discovery, believes there is an abundance of talent, but not always an abundance of access. Karen helps talented creators navigate the puzzle pieces like structure, politics to be positioned for success. Feed Your Passion. Check out this week’s episode as we discuss what it takes, what talent is, and what YOU need to do to “get access”.
This is still one of my favorite episodes probaby because we talk about Issa Rae. Still waiting for them to produce a bonus episode of Insecure - Low Key Stalkin'.
