The Fine Line Podcast: Balancing Hedonism & Health9 Helmi 2021

Episode 11 - Maryam Ahmed

Do you ever worry that you aren’t doing enough to help institute the BLM movement and environmentalism into our business, or feel confused about which association is doing what and who to align yourself with for these causes? We do too, so we caught up today with Maryam Ahmed, founder of Maryam+Company, who, with her new business, is bringing together the various organizations who are taking a stand to make a difference. We talk about her transition out of her role as the director of public programs at the Culinary Institute of America and into her new role as a business owner. We discuss the challenges and importance of fitting in time for oneself every day, as well as her perspective on being a woman of color in the wine industry.
