Community, Confidence, and Career Growth in Programmatic, With Tiffany Wade","description":"In this episode of Programmatic Digest, H\u00e9l\u00e8ne sits down with Tiffany Wade, Media Director at Hunter Blue, for a grounded conversation on community building, mentorship, and leadership as a woman in programmatic and ad tech.  Tiffany shares her path into media, from a psychology background and early career pivots to finding her footing through curiosity, asking better questions, and building relationships that opened doors. They talk about what it feels like to be \u201cthe only one\u201d in the room, how to stay brave while navigating discomfort, and why finding your community matters, even if you have to build it or move toward it.  The conversation also breaks down what mentorship really is, how to approach mentors with clarity, and why mentorship is a two-way exchange. Tiffany explains her servant-leadership approach to mentoring, how she helps mentees get self-aware about their goals, and why networks, resources, and honest feedback can accelerate growth.  They close with encouragement for anyone feeling drained by work and life pressures, and Tiffany\u2019s reminder to protect your peace by understanding what actually replenishes you, not what self-care is \u201csupposed\u201d to look like.   \ud83e\udde0 About Us:  We help historically excluded individuals break into programmatic media buying and land jobs they love.
