#219Corporate Confessions Part 3: Crisis Meetings, Site Visitors, and The Agar Plate Moment That Ended My Imposter Syndrome
What if the reason you doubt yourself isn’t because you’re not good enough but because you’ve been ignoring the evidence of your brilliance? In this final episode of the Corporate Confessions series, I’m sharing the moment that permanently dismantled my imposter syndrome. It wasn’t a mindset mantra or a confidence boost exercise. It was a real-life leadership crisis, complete with site visitors, daily war-room meetings, consultants, executives flying in from the US, and billions of dollars’ worth of product at risk. And it taught me something every woman in leadership needs to hear. If you’re a senior woman who second-guesses…

In this episode of the 360 LeadHERship Podcast, I’m sharing one of the most vulnerable and liberating moments of my career. A moment that terrified me, challenged everything I thought “professional” was supposed to look like, and unexpectedly opened the door to deeper confidence, stronger leadership, and more aligned opportunities.

#217Corporate Confessions Part 1: The Cringey Rubber Duck Moment with a Merck Executive That Almost Killed my Career
Have you ever done something at work so cringe you wished the floor would swallow you whole? I have and yes, it involved a rubber duck, a manor house, and a very senior executive. It’s one of those mortifying, laugh-until-you-cry moments that taught me more about leadership than any course ever did. In this week’s episode of the 360 LeadHERship podcast, I kick off a three-part Corporate Confessions series to show you the messy, human side of leadership. I tell a personal story that will make you wince (and then nod). If you’re tired of giving your power away, wasting…

#2153 Secrets to Clarify, Set and Achieve Your Leadership Career Goals in 2026
Do you ever get to the end of the year and think… “How did another 12 months pass and I’m still stuck in the same patterns?” You’re not alone. Most women in senior leadership cruise into January already exhausted, overthinking, firefighting, and hoping things will magically change. But here’s the thing: your potential was never the problem. The issue is the structure, the systems, and the way you’ve been taught to put yourself last. In this special New Year’s episode of the 360 LeadHERship podcast, I’m pulling back the curtain on the exact process I use (and teach inside 3SIXTY…
