Fearless Dame Sharon White On Visibility & Making History
Trinny is joined by businesswoman Dame Sharon White to discuss visibility, gratitude and making history.
Welcome to Fearless, the empowering podcast that tells the stories of inspirational people who have overcome challenges and fears in their lives in order to thrive.
Trinny and Sharon take a look back at some of the defining moments of her groundbreaking career so far, from becoming the first woman – and the first black person – to chair Ofcom to being named the UK's most influential black person in the 2023 Powerlist. They discuss the origins of Sharon’s ambition as a working-class girl from East London, and how her glass-half-full mentality helped her seize the opportunities that led her to becoming the first female chair of the John Lewis Partnership.
Plus, they talk about the responsibility that comes with increased visibility in senior leadership roles, the importance of gratitude in the face of imposter syndrome, and why we should never stop asking ourselves what we want to be when we grow up.
