Finding Your EPIC
Finding Your EPIC is a podcast dedicated to helping women unlock their potential and achieve a rewarding and impactful career. I invite you to learn from women at the top of their game as they share the career-defining light-bulb moments that helped them to find their epic.

We’ll explore the tips and strategies that helped senior-level women get to where they are today, learn from their unique wisdom and experience, and, over the weeks, build a collection of actionable advice you can benefit from – no matter where you are in your career.

S2-Ep8 EPIC Joy with Michelle Stokes
Jacqueline and Michelle discuss her career journey, sharing her transition from sales to learning and development at Organon. She emphasises viewing careers as long-term journeys rather than just jobs. Drawing from her childhood love of Lego, Michelle reflects on how early interests often shape career choices. She describes how career paths have evolved from traditional ladders to more flexible trajectories, advocating for finding joy in one's work. The conversation concludes with a powerful quote from Rosalynn Carter: "A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be."
