Show Notes

On this episode of the podcast, we talk to Cassandra Lam, co-founder of The Cosmos.

Cassandra and co-founder Karen Mok started The Cosmos with a simple question: what does it mean for Asian women and gender non-binary people to not just survive, but to thrive? To not merely assimilate, but to carve their own paths?

Today, The Cosmos has more than 5,000 members in cities around the country.

Their book club was just featured in The New York Times and in just a few weeks, 500 members will gather for their very first summit here in New York City.

What motivated Cassie and Karen start this group? How did they get it off the ground?

What’s their big, bold vision for the future?
