#101: Mission Me! with Kym Vincenti
Women on a Mission with Sue Revell
Fearing ridicule. Falling through the cracks for help. Letting the bullies win. When learning to be resourceful is your only path to surviving the unusual and unconventional life you’ve been born into, it can take a lifetime to slow down enough to breathe. Kym Vincenti was a born extrovert, living in the introvert shell she had created for safety. She describes how slowing everything down and launching ‘Mission Me’, has been an awkward and difficult journey of self-discovery, learning the power of self-acceptance in order to be her own champion, from the inside-out.

#100: Looking back on: Bravery, Courage & Guts! with Viv Groskop
Women on a Mission with Sue Revell

And what difference would it make in your world if you could trust yourself to feel at ease and confident when it matters most? In last week’s interview (#099) I talked to Viv Groskop, award-winning writer, comedian, TV and radio presenter.

Mi Elfverson is the founder of The Vlog Academy and creator of the EyeStorm community.

#094: Looking back on: Can We Care Too Much As Leaders? with Frances Beecher
Women on a Mission with Sue Revell
What does it mean to be an all-in leader? And how can we be all-in, creating positive impact and influence, while also looking after ourselves, those we lead, and those we serve? In last week’s interview (#093) I talked to Frances Beecher, CEO of Llamau, Wales’ leading young people and women’s homeless charity. Frances can’t NOT care and it’s a conversation about creating influence and impact, in a sector where leaders can often feel powerless. Where are you feeling powerless to create change right now?

#092: Looking back on "What's Keeping You Stuck?" with Janey Lee Grace
Women on a Mission with Sue Revell
Which life are you living? Is it the life you’ve grown used to and don’t know how to change, or is it the life that you have chosen to create? In last week’s interview (#091) I talked to well-known author, speaker and former BBC radio presenter, Janey Lee Grace - founder of The Sober Club. Quitting the booze was the missing link for Janey, enabling her to find her purpose and live her best life. What would be possible for you if you were no longer stuck and, instead, living the life you would choose to create? Looking back on our conversation, this week I explore what we can learn...
