Ep 147 - Katy Leeson - The Success Paradox: Thrive despite imposter syndrome

On today’s episode, I’m sitting down with the brilliant Katy Leeson - The ex MD of Steven Bartlett's Social Chain. 

Katy’s journey from stepping into Social Chain as ‘the old lady ruining the fun’ (her words, not mine!) to scaling it into a multi-million-pound powerhouse is nothing short of incredible. 

We talk about everything - managing imposter syndrome, leading with care, and why sometimes a phone that’s not plugged in can lead to the biggest opportunities. 

Oh, and there’s plenty of laughter, life lessons, and a few surprises along the way.
