Tech Barbie Takes the Mic: ADHD, Authenticity & Smashing the Mould in Fintech
Manage episode 507812501 series 3420924
In this vibrant and unfiltered episode, we’re joined by Rae Hoskins—aka the Caffeine-Fuelled Tech Barbie - who’s flipping the script on what leadership looks like in the tech world.
From managing a restaurant at 17 to managing technology operations in fintech, Rae’s story is packed with grit, glitter, and game-changing insight. We dive into how one mentor’s belief sparked her journey, how she’s turned ADHD into her superpower, and why inclusivity and authenticity in tech aren’t optional—they’re essential. If you've ever felt like you didn’t quite fit the mould, this episode is your permission slip to break it entirely.
