#19: Sandra Brodie - Breaking Convention, 50 Days of Silence, and Disrupting Temporary Power

Today I chat to Sandra Brodie, founder of Powershift - a "Cleaner, Smarter" alternative to diesel generators. Sandra reflects on her early days learning the practical side of business in a printing shop from AFL legend Greg Williams and being mentored by an unconventional leader at Deloitte Digital. Our conversation goes beyond business, with Sandra sharing how a transformative year living at a spiritual school in the Guatemalan jungle shaped her deep belief that we are here to learn and evolve. We talk about her bold decision to leave the corporate world at 23 and how enduring a 50-day silent retreat shifted her mindset from being a victim to becoming an empowered creator. Today's conversation is a calm reminder that you shouldn't waste your energy trying to fit in, because not fitting in is actually a profoundly positive thing.Enjoy!
