In today's episode, I’m excited to be joined by Marina Middleton, the CEO and Partner at Create & Cultivate, the largest events and media platform dedicated to advancing women. Marina’s journey as a corporate strategist turned founder, and now a successful VC-backed CEO, showcases her ability to turn bold visions into reality. Under her leadership, Create & Cultivate launched the world’s largest festival for women in business, and she continues to inspire thousands of women entrepreneurs.
We explore:
• The power of reinventing yourself and the importance of taking risks
• How personal branding serves as an essential form of equity
• Scaling meaningful connections and why networking and collaboration are essential for growth
• How embracing failure and figuring it out along the way can be your greatest strength
• Balance between pushing forward and trusting the process during business reinvention
