Manage episode 434158156 series 3410786
Buckle up, folks. We're diving deep with Victoria Pelletier, a corporate powerhouse who's built a career that'll make your head spin. From running a hair salon at 11 to becoming a COO at 24, Victoria's journey is anything but ordinary.
In this no-holds-barred conversation, we tackle the evolving landscape of work, the rollercoaster of diversity and inclusion efforts, and why corporate life isn't the soul-sucking monster some make it out to be. Victoria drops truth bombs about what employees really want post-pandemic (spoiler: it ain't just a paycheck) and why DEI initiatives need to be more than just a box-ticking exercise.
But here's the kicker - Victoria's not just talking theory. She's lived it. From overcoming a traumatic childhood to navigating corporate politics, she's developed a resilience that's downright inspiring. Her five-step approach to "healthy resilience" is something you'll want to tattoo on your forearm.
Whether you're climbing the corporate ladder, running your own gig, or just trying to figure out what the hell you want to do with your life, Victoria's insights will light a fire under your ass. She's proof that you can thrive in the corporate world without selling your soul, and that side hustles can be more than just a pipe dream.
