From corporate banking to mother + leadership coach, meet Raina Gandhi

Episode notes

What happens when you step out of the workforce for 11 years to raise your kids and then try to step back in? For Raina Gandhi, it meant climbing back into high-pressure roles, bumping up against workplace politics (and yes, bullying), and eventually realizing she wanted something different. In this episode, Raina shares the very real story of her career flip from investment banking to higher ed leadership to being laid off, and how all of those experiences shaped the work she does today. Now, as the founder of Rising Tide Consulting, she helps women leaders and entrepreneurs break through what she calls the inner glass ceiling : those voices of self-doubt, perfectionism, and “I’m not enough” that keep so many of us stuck.
