KEYPOINTS
- 01
Meta VP on leadership/resilience — hugely traumatic (esp. women); worked differently that day message arrived.
Couldn't sleep; lost half stone one weekend; Monday ‘that's not me’. Confident child — school reports ‘talks too much’. Theater study; place at Central School of Speech and Drama then path shift.
- 02
Always loved reading — told teacher never saw again; felt better.
Finest leaders opportunity extraordinary. Money into academia/governments for AI guardrails so it doesn't... Framing responsibility.
- 03
One-of-a-kind inspiration framing from host — brain hard to quantify.
Fear of conversation becoming too loving/fan. Resilience overcame.
- 04
Identity check Monday after trauma weekend.
Return to self. Work adapted not stopped.
- 05
Talks-too-much as confidence evidence.
Reframe school critique. Voice as asset.
- 06
Drama school almost-path.
Communication roots. Leadership later.
- 07
Guardrails funding with academia/gov.
Tech responsibility. Not only growth.
- 08
Tell people you love their books — close loops.
Small courage. Never-again chance.
