This week we’re talking to Sofie Lindberg. Sofie is the executive director of Claim Your Potential, a non-for-profit organization empowering women and girls academically, emotionally, financially, and professionally. Sofie discusses her motivation behind starting Claim Your Potential, the four pillars of empowerment, and the importance of providing a safe space for teenage girls.

Sofie draws inspiration from her personal struggles and triumphs to motivate and inspire others. Her experiences with assault, emotional abuse, and mental health challenges have taught her the importance of resilience, determination, and personal growth. Sofie powerfully demonstrates through her work with Claim Your Potential and her various roles, including as a member of UNICEF USA's Board Operations & Strategic Implementation team, that anyone can overcome obstacles and make a meaningful impact on the world.

Sofie's message is clear, whether she's delivering a keynote speech, leading a workshop, or hosting her podcast, Claim Your Potential: The Empowerment Podcast - with the right mindset and tools, anyone can claim their potential and make a difference in the world.
