Emma Grede: Other People’s Opinions Are Not My Business
About this episode
<p>Emma Grede has built some of the most influential brands of the modern era, but behind the businesses and boardroom is a woman who has never been afraid to question who gets to lead, who’s allowed to speak openly about ambition, or to take up space.</p><p>In this episode of Sisters of Defiance, Anita sits down with Emma to talk about power, money, motherhood, resilience, and the defining moments that shaped her extraordinary rise. From growing up in East London to building global brands and becoming one of the most respected entrepreneurs in business, Emma reflects on the risks she took and the mindset that helped her forge her own path on her own terms.</p><p>This is a conversation about what happens when women stop apologising for wanting more and start owning their ambition without shame. This one is for anyone ready to think bigger.</p><p>If you enjoyed the show, follow us at…</p><p>Instagram - @sistersofdefiance</p><p>Anita - @itsanitarani</p><p>Emma - @emmagrede</p><p>Subscribe on YouTube <a href="http://www.youtube.com/@itsanitarani" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.youtube.com/@itsanitarani</a></p><br><p>And if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at: <a href="mailto:hello@sistersofdefiance.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">hello@sistersofdefiance.com</a> </p><br><p>Sisters of Defiance is nourished by Ancient & Brave</p><p><a href="https://ancientandbrave.earth/pages/planet" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ancientandbrave.earth/pages/planet</a> </p><br><p>Presented by Anita Rani</p><p>Producer: Flossie Barratt</p><p>Technical Producer / Editor: Will Gibson Smith</p><p>Social Media Manager: Anna Richmond</p><p>Graphic Design: Sunny Formats</p><p>Sisters of Defiance is an Illuminaunty production.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
