Welcome to Culture Study, a podcast documenting the inspiring stories of cultural movers and shakers. On today’s show, we sit down with the Tanima Mehrotra as she shares moments from her childhood in India, touches on her experience as a woman of color in the corporate and creative worlds, and opens up about mental health and how embracing her true identity and perspective brought her out of a deep depression. Tanima is extremely humble and asked that I refrain from mentioning any of her amazing accolades so I’ll do my best. But in just one year of freelancing she’s been able to partner with some enormous brands and photograph artists and musicians who have found achieved global success. I hope you enjoy this episode of Culture Study. If you do, please do me a huge favor and share it with one other person who would enjoy it as well. Thank you so much, peace! —— Follow Tanima’s Journey: Instagram: @bytanima Website: bytanima.com
