The emPOWER Breakfast Returns With Guest Speaker Sue Higgs

The emPOWER Breakfast announces its return after the summer break!

During July and August, host Athene Parker conducted two Instagram Live interviews a week while continuing to prep for the next in-person events. Athene Parker will be interviewing Sue Higgs @ladysusan on September 19th, finding out about the woman behind the stellar rise to ECD and delving into the stories of her ancestors and how they have supported her on her journey. Let me caveat now… there is a plot twist! ‘Ancestral Allies: How Generations of Strong Women Propelled My Path to ECD’

Sue, an Award winning executive creative director began her career journey in 1990 and has worked her way up throughout the ‘halcyon’ days of extreme institutional sexism! Blazing a trail for creative women in our industry in all sectors.

A woman who has been no stranger to challenges and scheduling on her journey as a solo mother to three, and a pioneer in high level agency corporate management, she is adept at negotiating challenging situations, having experienced extreme bullying from a senior male colleague when she was a younger creative,and although Sue is teflon she also believes that we shouldn’t have to manage these kinds of issues.
