About The Dr Sam Collins Podcast
From the publisher's feed
Women do not need more confidence. Women need more freedom.
Freedom to think differently. Freedom to speak honestly. Freedom to challenge expectations. Freedom to stop waiting until they feel completely ready. And freedom to make the contribution they are here to make.
The Dr Sam Collins Podcast is part of the Choose Freedom movement, a global conversation for women who care deeply about the future and know, perhaps quietly and perhaps fiercely, that they have a part to play in shaping it.
Drawing on more than twenty five years of experience working with women across business, charities, education, law, finance, social impact and community leadership, Dr Sam Collins explores freedom, courage, purpose, contribution, leadership, reinvention and what becomes possible when women become more intentional about the future they are helping to create.
Through personal reflections, real life stories and practical wisdom, Sam challenges conventional thinking about success, confidence and change. She explores the lives, careers, choices and experiences of women who are shaping the worlds around them, often in ways that are far more significant than they realise.
This is not a podcast about becoming perfect.
You do not need to have conquered your anxiety, found your confidence, achieved your ideal weight, built a successful business, earned a certain income, accumulated thousands of followers or created a perfect life before you can make a meaningful contribution. You can be uncertain, frustrated, disappointed, irritated, overwhelmed, still figuring things out and still changing the world around you.
Because the women who shape the future are not the women who have everything worked out.
They are the women who choose to contribute anyway.
And in doing so, they help shape better future stories for their families, organisations, communities, countries and the wider world.
Freedom is not the end of the story.
The real question is:
What future will you help create?
