I’m joined by Lee Griffith, founder of sunday skies, to reflect on her career in senior communications roles and the shift that led her to retrain and build a different way of working.Lee spent nearly two decades working in communications across large public sector environments most recently as a Communications Director. We talk about advising leaders, navigating expectations in PR, and the judgement calls that come with senior roles.The conversation also explores her decision to step away from corporate life, retrain as a coach, and how she now supports people to (un)learn leadership, ambition and responsibility in work and life.About the guestLee Griffith is the founder of sunday skies. After almost 20 years in senior communications roles across large public sector organisations, Lee retrained as a coach and now works with people who care a lot to (un)learn the rules that were never written with them in mind, so they can lead, work and live on their own terms.Connect with LeeLee Griffiths on LinkedIn(Un)learning Life on Substacksunday skies websiteConnect with meKayleigh-Anne Soryal on LinkedInlove comms website
