Balancing Career and Purpose

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Yanique Brandford, founder and CEO of Help A Girl Out (HAGO), to explore her powerful journey of balancing career and purpose. Born into extreme poverty in Jamaica and now based in Toronto, Yanique shares how her transition to Canada helped shape her identity, ignited her passion for education, and sparked a mission to break cycles of poverty.

As a Biomedical Physics graduate from Toronto Metropolitan University—and the only Black woman in her program—Yanique defied the odds in both academic and social spaces. She opens up about navigating her STEM career while building a purpose-

driven nonprofit aimed at ending menstrual poverty and stigma.

Though HAGO is a key part of her story, this conversation dives deeper into how Yanique’s personal and academic triumphs reflect a larger story of resilience, identity, and the call to transform pain into purpose. Her voice is a testament to what’s possible when you commit to creating change for the next generation.
