Stepping into your purpose and leaving the comfort of a major media brand like Fox or Paramount takes immense courage, a topic we dive into with Jyoti Sarda, founder of Nimble Media and producer of impactful films. Jyoti shares her journey of transitioning from the corporate world to independent filmmaking, covering the realities of fundraising and launching your own venture with eyes wide open. Her projects, such as And She Could Be Next and the recently launched LILLY, starring Patricia Clarkson, are impactful. LILLY notably chronicles the story behind the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which became Obama’s first law during his first term. Together, these films underscore the vital importance of female voices, votes, and candidates in politics, proving that film and media are powerful platforms for driving change and lasting impact.
