Where Belonging Lives: Kristin Mosley on DEIB, Identity, and Impact in STL

In this episode of Gateway to Growth, host Jamal Cornelious sits down with Kristin Mosley, Director of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging at St. Louis City SC, for a powerful conversation about identity, resilience, and building spaces where everyone can thrive. Kristin shares her journey from growing up as the only Black girl in her private school classroom to leading DEIB efforts inside one of St. Louis’ most dynamic organizations. Drawing from nearly 15 years in HR and her lived experience navigating spaces where she didn’t always feel seen, she reflects on the defining moments that shaped her voice, her leadership style, and her commitment to advocacy. Together, they explore what diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging truly mean beyond buzzwords, how setbacks can become turning points, and why “failing forward” is often the doorway to purpose. Kristin opens up about losing two jobs in one year, leaning into relationships, and taking a leap of faith that ultimately positioned her to help shape culture within a professional sports organization. The conversation also highlights the broader impact of sports beyond the field—from creating career pathways for young people to expanding access, representation, and opportunity across the region. Kristin shares her passion for literacy, authorship, and ensuring that children see themselves reflected in the stories they read. This episode is a reminder that you don’t have to shrink to succeed, that setbacks don’t define your trajectory, and that real change happens when individuals decide to show up fully—both for themselves and for their city.
