My name is Julie Lou, and I find it absolutely magical when women support and uplift each other as allies. This is the magic I refer to with the title of my podcast, "The Female Effect."
Every other Thursday, I invite a woman into the studio who, in her own way, is making a difference for other women and using her voice and talents to make a positive impact on the world.
I hope you feel inspired, because we're rooting for you!
With love,
Julie Lou

As a leading voice in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Dr. Poornima Luthra is redefining what it means to create truly inclusive workplaces. With over 15 years of experience as a speaker, author, and educator, Poornima challenges deep-seated biases and empowers organizations to foster environments where everyone can thrive.
Growing up in Singapore, she often found herself questioning rigid educational norms—thinking outside the box in a system that didn’t always embrace it. That early curiosity led her to a PhD that transformed her perspective on race, feminism, and intersectionality, shaping her mission to bring awareness to the biases we all hold. Poornima believes that awareness is the first step to change, urging individuals to ask, "Who is your bias buddy?"—a challenge to seek perspectives beyond our own blind spots.
A TED speaker and Thinkers50-recognized management thinker, Poornima’s expertise has influenced leading global corporations. As the author of two bestselling books, with her third recently released, she continues to push the boundaries of how we approach diversity and inclusion—not just as policies, but as fundamental shifts in the way we see and support one another.
I hope you’re feeling inspired, cause we’re rooting for you!
