Nora Fatehi on the Success Mindset Behind Her Rise

There's a version of Nora Fatehi the internet has decided on. This conversation is not that.

When I sit down for these conversations at Shame Less, I always expect honesty — but when Nora sat down with me, she gave us everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. We talked about growing up in Toronto, feeling pulled toward India with no connections and no plan, and how she didn't just show up and hope for the best — she studied, she strategized, and she outworked everyone in a room that wasn't built for her. She got into what growing up without her father did to how she loves, what feminism actually means to her beyond the headlines, and what she really thinks about men. All of it, unfiltered.

If you think you know her, watch this. You don't.
