In this episode, I sit down with Sage Ke’alohilani Quiamno, a nationally recognized DEI leader, founder, and angel investor who has helped over 2,500 WOC negotiate higher salaries. But her story didn’t start in boardrooms and conference stages—it started with a childhood experience that shaped her mission to advocate for women of color.
