Unlearn. Reclaim. Lead. | Stop Waiting for Permission to Be Seen ft. Gia Warren
Women of Color An Intimate ConversationPlay episode
Show notes
You were built to lead. So why does the path keep feeling out of reach?
In this episode of Women of Color: An Intimate Conversation, Deneen L. Garrett
sits down with Gia Warren — strategic operations and program management leader,
MBA, and global executive with leadership experience at Lumen, Intel, Amazon,
and AT&T — for a conversation about what it truly means to be built to lead.
Gia shares the decision that shifted how she sees herself, what she had to
unlearn on the road to operational excellence, and what she wishes more women
understood before they start looking for the path forward.
If you're a Black woman 50+ who knows you're meant for more — but keeps
waiting for the right moment, the right room, or the right permission — this
conversation is going to meet you exactly where you are.
In this episode:
→ The decision that shifts how you see yourself as someone built to lead
→ What high-achieving women have to unlearn to claim their own success
→ What separates women who find their pathway from women who don't
→ Why operational excellence is as much a personal standard as a professional one
→ The permission no one gives you — and why you have to become it
