In this episode of the But First, She Failed Podcast, host Paola Soares welcomes Nikki Barua — serial entrepreneur, bestselling author, keynote speaker, and Interim CEO of Latinas in Tech — for a powerful conversation on thriving in the age of AI.
As artificial intelligence continues to rapidly transform the workforce, it’s no longer a question of if AI will affect our careers, but how. A recent McKinsey Global Survey reports that AI adoption has soared from 20% in 2017 to 78% in 2025, and nearly 40% of global jobs are expected to be impacted. For women — especially millennial Latinas navigating the entrepreneurial world or advancing their careers — the stakes are high.
In her 25-year career in innovation, Nikki has helped global brands transform their culture and capabilities. Now she is on a mission to help business leaders reinvent the way they lead, live, and succeed in the age of AI.
Nikki has won numerous awards, including Entrepreneur of the Year by ACE among others— she’s been recognized in Entrepreneur Magazine’s 100 Most Influential Women, named an LA Woman of Influence by The Business Journals and Women of Entrepreneurship by LA Lakers.
In this interview she shares why it’s crucial that we lean into AI now, what women can do to bridge the AI Skills Gap so they can future-proof their careers and skillset, and where to start if you have no idea how to get up to speed on AI… this and so much more…
