Ep18 - Is your hairstyle divisive and hindering your professional career? Guest: Walter Gainer II
Dec 16, 2020
Steve Worthy

In this episode, we discuss a form of bias that Isn't spoken about often. Can a particular hairstyle be seen as unacceptable and divisive within corporate america? We tackle this highly personal and seldom broached conversation that many Black and Minorities are dealing with each day. Our Guest Is Walter Gainer II.

Walter Gainer II is a problem solver who helps individuals and businesses do what they do best while reducing their stress. He does this by creating marketing and business solutions to help reach new growth. He's also used his expertise to create a space to address the obstacles that Black employees and business owners face in the workplace.

“This all started right after college when I was nervous about being rejected in job interviews because of my locs. I knew I would thrive in any role I got but wasn't sure how to get past the job interview without cutting my locs"

Using his insecurities and curiosity, Walter created a platform to support Black people pursuing growth in their career, as business owners and their natural hair journey.
