Note: This episode contains conversations around miscarriages and fertility that may be difficult for some to hear.
Reshma Saujani made a name for herself as the Founder and CEO of the hugely successful nonprofit, Girls Who Code, which became one of the largest women-run organizations in the country. But she’s more than just the Founder of Girls Who Code. She has been featured in countless magazines and newspapers, appeared as a commentator on cable news, ran for Congress and her local Public Advocate office, and written three books. But every story has more to it than meets the eye: behind all of her success, Reshma struggled with conceiving a child. Her difficult journey into motherhood paralleled her incredible career highs and led her to her pivot.
