In this special on-location episode of the Blooming North Podcast, host Lisa records live from Goodison Park, home of Everton Women, to celebrate International Women’s Day.

Joined by Dawn Paine, former CMO of Nintendo and Universal Pictures and Co-Founder of Aurora, and Sue Gregory, CEO of Everton in the Community, the conversation explores what modern leadership really looks like. Together they discuss the lessons learned from leading at the highest levels, the difference between experience and wisdom, and the leadership traits that truly make an impact  beyond outdated ideas of “masculine” and “feminine” styles.

From the power of place and Northern identity to the role of sport in driving real social change, this episode reflects on the influence of women who are shaping organisations, communities, and the future of leadership.

Recorded at a special International Women’s Day event hosted by WACL (Women in Advertising, Communications and Leadership), this conversation celebrates the pioneers and trailblazers creating meaningful change  and asks what female leadership might look like in the next decade.

If you’re passionate about leadership, impact, and empowering women to thrive both personally and professionally, this episode is for you.
