In the intro to this episode I mention that my friend Tania Vasallo, Founder of The Courage to be Happy, is running an amazing 3 days event, called Increase Your Income and Impact, starting June 21st @ 11am EST / 9am MT / 8am PST so for all those of you are able to attend in these times zones you should check Tania's event out. Sadly I can't attend because the event starts at 1am Melbourne time and I love my sleep! Tania was my guest on Episode 31 of Women In Confidence so if you want to get to know Tania before signing up to her event, go listen to Episode 31.

Hello, I'm Vanessa, the host of Women In Confidence. Welcome and thanks for listening.

I interview amazing women who have genuine stories to tell about their journey through life and how they manage the ups and downs of life. My vision is for my listeners to try something that has worked for my guests and if it changes their lives then I feel that the podcast has been a positive contribution to the world.

Profile picture for Vanessa Murphy

Vanessa Murphy

Vanessa is a HR Consultant, The Founder of Boom Podcast Agency and a Podcast Host.
Vanessa got her first proper job in 1998 when she joined as an Officer in the Royal Navy and then after 15 years doing that, she transitioned into senior HR and Culture roles working for organisations all over the world.
She now has 2 strings to her bow....
Firstly, she is an empath, avid people watcher and she likes to observe people when they were operating with confidence and self-belief and learn strategies, tools and techniques from them. She helps women with confidence at work and her Women In Confidence podcast is a way for her to share her knowledge and her network with a wider audience.

Secondly, she has always been fascinated by what makes a company great to work for and now devotes her time to creating workplaces that not only have impressive performance but are also human centred - hint... they are not mutually exclusive. Her Conversations About Company Culture podcast is her way of sharing ways to build great organisations.
