86: The Women's Association founder Deborah Williams – The 'burdening passion': how to create your own reality

Joining Michael today is Deborah Williams, the founder of The Women’s Association. Through programmes that give women access to professional support networks that help them to grow in their careers and lives, and by engaging with corporations to ensure systemic change, The Women’s Association campaigns for a better world for women by changing cultures, systems and mindsets – a mission Deborah describes as “a burdening passion. Unlike anything I had ever experienced before.” Alongside success has been a journey where she has had to face challenges as a young, Black woman in business, having to prove the doubters wrong and, as she says in her tip for life, not letting the perceptions of others become her reality.
