In this special episode, host Priya Clemens sits down with entrepreneur and attorney Lata Setty, who shares her unique and personal experiences with Kamala Harris over the years. From attending conferences where they first met to an unforgettable stay at Harris’s former San Francisco apartment, Lata offers listeners a heartfelt look into the vice president’s remarkable journey and her enduring impact.

“Even back then, she was very committed to the community,” Lata recalls of their early encounters. “It was about building community and leveraging resources to help those most vulnerable.”

As the conversation unfolds, Lata reflects on what it means as a South Asian immigrant and attorney to see someone with shared roots running for the presidency. “It was not just an inspiration,” Lata emphasizes. “It was representation of what I and my generation can do, and what future generations can achieve.”

Listeners will also hear the surprising and personal tale of how Lata ended up staying in Kamala Harris’s former condo. “I was over the moon,” Lata recounts. “It was the most historically meaningful stay I’ve ever experienced.” She vividly describes the modest apartment, noting, “She lived very humbly and simply… it shows who she was, from her upbringing in East Bay to her status as vice president.”

This episode encapsulates the significance of Kamala Harris’s story for all Americans, especially immigrants who resonate with her journey. “Most of us voting are not from billionaire families,” Lata reflects. “Staying in her condo, I felt connected to the immigrant experience and inspired by her rise from humble beginnings to the highest echelons of leadership.”
