This week, I'm chatting with my dear friend and fellow Wharton MBA student, Temi Butler. Temi walks us through her impressive career journey, from navigating the high-stakes world of finance at top institutions to landing on Forbes 30 Under 30, and ultimately pivoting from a stable job to embrace her creative passions.

From big corporate to being a DJ, Temi has been there and done that, and she offers invaluable insights for anyone looking to build a highly ambitious and fulfilling professional path.

She shares:

  • The pressure to prove yourself, especially as a black woman
  • How she hustled her way into top institutions early in her career
  • Advice for those looking to break into finance
  • The challenge of holding back her authentic self at work
  • Her unique upbringing by parents who are dedicated artists
  • How she landed on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list
  • Her pivot from investment banking to working for a startup
  • Why she chose to pursue an MBA
  • Her biggest takeaways from business school
