Ep 90: You have the power to do anything you want in life with Ani Filipova

The Purpose-Led Leadership Podcast

You are more powerful than you think.

With the right attitude and mindset, you can achieve anything in life. This is the belief of my guest in this episode, Ani Filipova.

Ani grew up with humble beginnings in Bulgaria, a socialist country, where she was always told “be quiet” and “don’t speak up”. But she knew she wanted more out of life, and she has never let those voices stop her.

Going on to become COO of Citbank that has 250,00 employees globally, Ani talks about why she left it all behind to focus on her family and then become a coach. She shares the deep challenges she faced in having children, and the mental load this had on her fearing it may never happen.
