In this episode, I sit down with Sophie Williams—author of three books, TED speaker, and UN delegate. We dive into Sophie’s career progression, from high-profile roles to working for herself, and how she creates roadmaps that align with her values, whether she’s freelancing or not. Sophie graciously shares about being an autistic, young Black woman with close proximity to whiteness, and how this unique experience shapes her work life.

Join us for a rich and inspiring conversation on authenticity, identity, and carving out your own space in the working world.
