Simone Pollard, MBA, is the Founder of The Stretch Room, an interactive, online, instructor-led experience that helps participants reap the benefits that come with regularly stretching the body.
At this stop along our healing journey, Simone is here to remind us that we all have the right to take up space and stretch into places not originally designed for BIPOC. We discuss navigating the landscape of micro-aggressions, and taking our seat at the table. Simone shares her stories of often finding herself to be the only Black woman in her field and how her very existence in some spaces is an act of resistance.
In addition to running The Stretch Room, Simone is a consultant with The Pollard Collective. She is a strategist and a problem solver who collaborates with executives, institutional leaders, program/product managers, and marketers globally to evaluate products/programs and position them for success. She is also a classically trained dancer and a wellness enthusiast. Simone earned her MBA from The University of Michigan's Ross School of Business and holds a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from The University of Virginia.
