To inspire others to take the leap and go after their dreams whether it’s while working a full time job or simply leaving the corporate 9 to 5 behind...and today...I have the pleasure of interviewing someone who did just that. Not only did she leave, she also interviewed 50 others who did the same thing whether it was in the form of simply becoming a freelancer, consultant, starting a brand new business, or going in a different direction such as working in the non profit sector.

She built her professional career in beauty and luxury marketing, working with big brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Hugo Boss and Burberry. Today, she continues to write, consult and train businesses on how to build powerful brands and effective marketing strategies, and how best to implement these in their organisation. Since leaving her corporate job in 2013, she’s now reimagining what success looks like and she’s passionate about inspiring and supporting others to do the same. Anna is the author of Leaving the Corporate 9 to 5: Stories from people who’ve done it (and how you can too!).
