This first episode focuses on organisation techniques to help female founders manage their busy work lives, home lives and creative lives. Here we will uncover some key strategies that you can use to help achieve what you WANT to achieve amongst the crazy! In this episode of Women Who Lead and Scale. Kelly is in conversation with THREE fantastic female founders from across the UK: Isabella Venour Before Isabella Consulting, Isabella spent more than a decade in senior communications, business development, and marketing roles across agency and founder-led environments. Isabella led teams, developed new revenue streams, and worked closely with founders navigating growth, pressure, and change. Isabella went on to start MindStyle and now Isabella Consulting to focus on whole-business clarity — not just tactics. She brings coaching tools, NLP-based behavioural insight, and business strategy together because no strategy holds if the person leading it can’t navigate complexity with confidence.  Contact Isabella - https://www.isabellaconsulting.co.uk/ Isabella's linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/isabellavenourconsulting/ Suzi Gray I’m Suzi Gray, #1 Amazon bestselling author of Brand The Way You Think, founder of Captivation House, mum of two tiny humans, and ex-lawyer. For over a decade, I’ve helped online business owners transform from “best-kept secrets” into Instant Obsessions — with the kind of electric presence that makes dream clients binge your body of work, pre-sell themselves, and land on your virtual doorstep saying “I have to work with you”. I approach it through a thought leadership lens: your ideas (thought) and your identity (leadership) are always at the centre, and are used as a way of allowing your brand to evolve with you, work in your zone of genius, and attract only the best clients and opportunities to you.

They discuss different cultures and their attitudes towards work and money, as well as how nurture and upbringing can warp your priorities in later life. Jingjin shares her learnings that have ONLY come through experience and growth, particularly on how to thrive under pressure when all eyes are on you! GUEST BIO: I built my career in male dominated global businesses, eventually became Global Marketing Director for the largest business unit at WABCO, where I oversaw an $800 million portfolio, led two global teams with around twelve direct reports, and helped grow annual revenue from roughly $600 million to $800 million. Early in that journey, I was thrown into a CEO QBR just two weeks into a senior role when my predecessor failed to show up. I learned fast that once you step into a leadership seat, the business is yours, full stop. If you are a woman who knows you are capable of more but feels overlooked, underestimated, or stuck at the edge of bigger rooms, this work is for you, dm me to get your personalised offer.If you are a senior leader or L&D decision maker looking for sharper thinking and real world programmes on progressing women at work, send me a message.jingjin@elevateasia.org Jingjin Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jingjin-liu/?locale=de_DE The Elevate Group - https://elevateasia.org/about-us/ HOST SOCIALS Kelly Quinn - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/caremetrics⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Aliya Musa - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/aliya-musa-ab209050/⁠
