Thriving in Intersectionality

What if the way you communicate at work isn’t code-switching — it’s strategic leadership? In the latest episode of Thriving in Intersectionality podcast, Dr. Lola Adeyemo sits down with Dr. Julie Pham for a conversation that will shift how you think about identity, belonging, and what it means to lead.

Julie reframes code-switching not as assimilation, but as intentional communication. She introduces her 7 Forms of Respect® framework — a powerful reminder that respect isn’t one-size-fits-all. How it’s expressed, given, and received is deeply shaped by culture, lived experience, and personal history.

They also explore:

  • The difference between refugee and immigrant experiences — and why it matters in the workplace
  • “Push and pull” migration factors and how they show up in professional identity
  • Why success should be defined by how it feels, not just how it look
  • Managing energy (not just time) as a leadership practice
  • The power of asking for help as a career growth strategy

Workplaces That Work

Most leaders think they’re being respectful. But intention and impact are not the same thing. Dr. Julie Pham joined Dr. Lola Adeyemo on a recent episode of Workplaces That Work podcast to dig into one of the most misunderstood dynamics in professional life: What respect actually looks like at work, and why so many teams get it wrong.

The core problem? Without a shared understanding of respect, even well-meaning leaders can create friction, erode trust, and leave team members feeling unseen — all without realizing it.

  • In this conversation, Julie and Dr. Lola explore:
  • How misaligned expectations quietly create tension on teams
  • The role of curiosity in stronger leadership and team dynamics
  • Why good intentions don’t guarantee good impact
  • Practical ways to build shared understanding across diverse teams

If you lead people — or work alongside them — this episode will challenge how you think about respect and how you practice it every day.

Everything’s Not Black & White

In Episode 58 of Everything’s Not Black & White podcast, featuring Dr. Julie Pham, Julie sits down with hosts Lachandra Baker and Brian J Baker to explore what it actually takes to hold space for multiple truths. This is not as a philosophical exercise, but as a daily leadership practice.

She shares her Rubber Band Rule: Yes, stretch toward others, extend your respect, bridge the gap. But know where your limit is. Snapping doesn’t serve anyone.

She talks about the power of the pause, that small, deliberate moment between receiving something hard and choosing how to respond to it. And why that pause might be the most underrated leadership skill there is.

And she gets personal about her family’s story as Vietnamese refugees, about the history that didn’t make it into the textbooks, and about why leading with curiosity isn’t soft. It’s the hardest thing most of us will ever practice.

If you’ve ever navigated a room where people were holding very different versions of the same truth, this episode was made for you.

What does respect look like to you?
