In this episode of The Admin Avenues Podcast, we sit down with Ruth Kilah, Founder of Hoxton Hyde, Executive Coach, Consultant and Advocate for Admin Excellence. We sat down to talk about what it really takes to future-proof your admin career.

Ruth is a career coach and mentor who helps experienced Executive Assistants move into higher-level roles where they can grow their income, influence, and impact. Through her coaching, she empowers admin professionals to gain clarity, strengthen strategic thinking, and communicate their value with confidence.

Fun fact: We recorded this episode a few months ago, and during our chat, Ruth mentioned one of her dreams was to land a speaking gig in the USA. The very next day (not even kidding) she got an email from an American company inviting her to speak in the USA. Now that’s what we call fast manifesting!

Join us as we explore Ruth’s inspiring journey from EA to business founder, the mission behind Hoxton Hyde, and her top insights on building visibility, leadership, and resilience in today’s evolving world of work.
