From Big Four Partner To Culture Builder In Paris

We sit down with Trisha Daho, a former EY partner turned founder of Empowered, to talk about leaving corporate life, building a business, and designing a culture that helps people thrive. We get real about runway money, business development, self-worth after 40, and why AI should support your work instead of replacing your hard-earned wisdom. • Trisha’s career path from law school to EY partner to entrepreneur living near Paris • cultural differences between the US and Europe around corporate culture and people strategy • unlearning the belief that worth equals work output • a turning-point question that challenges career identity • why brand is culture externally and culture is brand internally • basic financial setup for founders and why taking money out too early can hurt • giving yourself grace to evolve your brand as the market responds • building intentional culture with value-based behaviors across hiring and performance • what to consider before quitting a corporate job, including financial runway and clarity • what business development means and practical ways to find clients • leadership in diverse teams through self-reflection and honoring different contributions • the real milestone of turning 40 and choosing what you want • using AI for support work while protecting human judgment and experience • who Empowered serves and the legacy Trisha wants to leave You can find us at www.empoweredlc.com or me personally a http://www.empoweredlc.comFollow us on Instagram at DiivaOnTheRadio..
