Heather Torres: The power of being vulnerable at work
Do you ever feel timid in sharing more of yourself at work? In a job where our personality and experiences merge together, how do we navigate a passion to educate through our own stories whilst also honouring what we went through and keeping our privacy? Not only is it a question of how much we share with our audience or customers, but also how open should we be with colleagues and how do we handle disagreements?
Our latest guest Heather Torres is the Chief Operating Officer at THINK Media, a team of content creators using video to help other businesses grow online. With 1.5 million subscribers watching their videos, and a YouTube channel of her own which shares her home-schooling experience as a mum, Heather has a wealth of experience in negotiating her personality within and at her work.
In this episode, Heather shares how she’s handled integrating her life and work, the importance of not sharing something you’re still going through and how to handle differing views and opinions within your team.
