S2:E7: "This year to me has been about wellness" - Fiona Lamptey on The Weight of Leadership
from Reservations For Two Podcast · host Ruth Ntorinkansah
True leadership isn't just about climbing the corporate ladder or achieving goals. It's about leading by example, as well as showing others what it means to prioritize self-care and well-being in a world that often values hustle over health, finding that delicate balance between career success and personal well-being, knowing when to push forward and when to take a step back. Now Join me as I have a reservation with Fiona Lamptey, former director of UK features at netflix, phenomenal producer, who has previously worked on projects such as the Attack the Block, The Strays and most recently The Kitchen on Netflix, as a leader Fiona champions bridging the gap between the unrepresented voices and the wealth of knowledge and access she has as an industry leader. ABOUT: Our inspiration behind starting Reservations for Two is that we wanted to build a holistic platform that spreads love and centres on your personal growth and development. Ruth's favourite thing to do is to go out to dinner with a friend, she refer's to it as a free therapy session, and this is the kind of space she wanted to curate, friends talking about life's issues over a meal, providing the necessary guidance on how to deal, heal and prevail - the essence of this show is that we get to hear the perspective of the different guests as well as their own personal journeys. So join us for our reservation!
