Summary

This week’s BA Q&A, Mandi is joined by powerhouse author, filmmaker, and workplace equity consultant Minda Harts to talk about how we build trust, advocate for ourselves, and demand more from the spaces we show up in—especially as women of color.

Minda opens up about her latest book, Talk to Me Nice: The Seven Trust Languages, and why understanding how we give and receive trust is essential—not just at work, but in every area of life.

If you’ve ever struggled with speaking up, setting boundaries, or navigating relationships in high-stakes environments, this conversation is for you.

Highlights!:

Why trust (not talent), is the real currency of leadership
How to communicate your value and protect your peace
What inspired Minda's seven trust languages
The connection between storytelling and equity in film and media
