00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,080
As women and girls, we are often told that it is tougher to get to the top as a female.

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,920
So what can we learn from those who've already done it?

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:09,600
I decided to find out.

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,400
I feel like this is therapy.

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:18,280
I'm psychologist and author Leona Deakin and in Leadership Journeys we delve into the

6
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,680
minds of inspirational women to uncover the secrets to their success.

7
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,480
The notion that you have to get your elbows out and make space for yourself and push everybody

8
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:32,720
down and away and we were like there has to be another way.

9
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,360
We discover how important it is to not set any limits for yourself.

10
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,760
Don't wait to be perfect because none of us will ever get there.

11
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,080
We discuss how being open to opportunities and flexible in the face of setbacks is critical.

12
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,720
There's always another way.

13
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,920
And you know as one door closes another one can open.

14
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:54,280
And we explore the value of feeling the fear and doing it anyway.

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,320
Don't be afraid.

16
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,080
We all do a lot of mistakes.

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,600
Life is a tricking.

18
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:07,520
Do steps and you know step by step it will bring you for something.

19
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,680
Join me as I talk to women who've defied expectations and broken through boundaries.

20
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:17,800
How they've achieved that and what the rest of us can take from it is revealed as we explore

21
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,280
their leadership journeys.

22
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:35,880
The first episode is available to stream on all platforms from the 15th of January 2025.
