Topics I’d Love to Discuss
The Power of Reinvention:
How changing careers (and paths) isn’t as scary as it seems. How I left East-Germany with 21 to spend the majority of my work-life in Sydney. No Job, no money, no family. How I did it all again with 40 – this time solo parenting with my 2 year old.
I have worked in 35+ roles across 15 industries, moved through 4 major career pivots across 4 countries. My journey has never been a straight line, and how that’s perfectly fine.
Ghostwriting your own visibility
“I Put Everyone’s Name But Mine”
We talk about imposter syndrome like it’s a feeling. It’s not just a feeling. It’s a behaviour. And the behaviour is this – we do the work, we believe in the work, and then at the last moment we hide the author. We ghostwrite our own invisibility. Then we wonder why no one finds us.
I spent 20 years in marketing, building brands for major companies. Yet – when it came to promoting myself – I froze.
The microphone is the cure. Not confidence first – not performance first, no. Just a conversation. Confidence comes after you speak, not before. You don’t wait until you’re ready. You speak your way into readiness.
