From translating tractor manuals to launching a B2B marketing agency, Delia Pitu’s career journey has been anything but linear. In this episode, Jamie Pagan sits down with Delia to explore how she went from a multilingual marketing intern with no industry direction to co-founding her own agency — one that now works with long-term clients across Europe.

Delia shares how she navigated the corporate structure of Procter & Gamble, made her way into fashion, learned to wear every marketing hat in a boutique travel company, and ultimately made the leap into entrepreneurship during a pandemic. Along the way, she touches on the power of self-awareness, learning through experience, and embracing change as the only constant.

If you’re at a career crossroads or thinking of starting your own business, Delia’s story is packed with perspective, honesty, and hard-won lessons.

Expect to learn:
