Geeta Raj is the smart woman that partnered with “White House Sleepover” guy (David) to create The Global Sleepover. Not only does she have a BA in Creative Writing and can speak Hindi, Urdu, and Spanish. She also holds a Masters in International Peace and Conflict Resolution from American University in Washington, DC. (Who even knew that was an option to get in school?). After her work with USAID (United States Agency for International Development) she went back to live in DC which is where she met David.
Let me brag about The Global Sleepover…

My guest is Geeta Raj is the smart woman that partnered with “White House Sleepover” guy (David) to create The Global Sleepover. Not only does she have a BA in Creative Writing and can speak Hindi, Urdu, and Spanish. She also holds a Masters in International Peace and Conflict Resolution from American University in Washington, DC. (Who even knew that was an option to get in school?). Funny enough none of these reasons are why you will leave this podcast being impressed with my dear friend of over 25 years. Her story about growing up as an Indian-American girl with parents who were immigrants from India (in fact her father was a refugee in the 1940’s) will leave you wanting to meet up with her for coffee.
