We are super excited to release this episode of The Assistant Lab, with one of the UK's most inspiring assistants!
Big words, but 100% the truth.
Leeanne Adu is a former Executive Assistant, who is award winning and spent most of her career in the UK Third Sector.
She has achieved a huge amount, under really challenging and exceptional circumstances.
Special Lee (you will find out more in the podcast why she had this nickname) doesn't hold back during this interview and is completely honest about what worked and hasn't during her professional career.
Why she didn't stay with employers who didn't recognise her worth and making the switch to running a highly successful Virtual Assistant Firm.
This episode comes with a trigger warning, as we discuss topics:
· Racism and the UK
· Mental Health and specifically around suicidal thoughts
· Traumatic pregnancy/labour
· Being diagnosed with Breast Cancer and her journey through treatment
· Anorexia and Obesity - which leads to Body Confidence and Leeanne taking part in two high profile campaigns with Pretty Little Thing and Primark for women who have dealt with cancer
