Welcome to another episode of Stories Matter! On today's show, we have a special guest joining us all the way from London - Susie Briscoe, an international business executive and lifestyle with legacy mentor.

[Why This Is Important] Today, we dive into Susie's early career in business, which began in a time when expectations for women in the workplace were vastly different. We'll hear about the challenges she faced in a world that didn't expect much from female executives, and how she carved out a successful career for herself against all odds.

[What you need to know] Susie shares stories of her time working at an advertising agency in London, where she quickly went from being a secretary to signing off on graphic designers' work and approving ad campaigns. Her love for her job was so strong that even on days off, she longed to be at work.

[What you need to do] As you listen to Susie's experiences, reflect on how far we've come in terms of gender equality in the workplace. Consider the stories you tell yourself and the limitations you may unknowingly place on your own potential. Let Susie's story inspire you to break free from the confines of societal expectations and pursue your dreams without hesitation.

[TAKE ACTION] Take a moment to think about a time when you challenged societal norms or broke through personal limitations. How did it feel to defy expectations? Share your story with us at [email protected]. Your story could become an inspiration for leaders around the world.
