Sana Mohammed is a second year MBA student in the class of 2019 and the current co-President of the Harvard Business School Student Association. We recorded this episode in the spring of Sana's first year at HBS and through this conversation got to learn more about why she chose energy for her pre-MBA career (despite it not being her passion choice) and how she hopes to pivot post-MBA. It's a great discussion of the importance of family to her and in life, but also the importance of taking care of and focusing on yourself.

Evan Kornbluh and Peter Hill are members of the HBS Class of 2018 and we recorded this conversation with them just before their graduation last spring. This episode was a first for us -- interviewing two students at once! Listen to this chat with us to learn about the MBA Oath from Evan & Peter as well as the initiative they helped to lead in the second year, Living the Mission. This was an important episode for us -- we hope the conversation helps to spark more discussions into the role of MBAs in our society and how we as graduates can make a positive contribution as we leave HBS.
