In today’s episode I speak with Shenin Lebrun. Born and raised in Amsterdam with Surinamese roots, Shenin is a business coach, entrepreneur, speaker, TV/film producer and a single mother to Zohra-Lisa. Her career started at Nike 17-years-ago, right after university. For her, it was a dream come true! Our conversation about the power of mentorship helps you to see the power others have in your journey to realize dreams and ambitions. In this episode, no matter what season you are in, you’ll see mentorship as a necessary aspect to your growth and progression. The guidance by others with experience can be what sets you apart and moves you forward. Over the years Shenin has learned to believe in herself and to trust her vision. As a black woman, She climbed the corporate ladder from a rookie assistant to an EMEA Director and established herself as a leader in the corporate world. For her, it’s not just a marketing line; it has become her mantra. She’s embraced the ‘Just Do It’ mindset into her personal and professional life. Following her dreams, Shenin is now a self-made businesswoman. In 2018 she founded Hustle & Heart Consultancy to help professionals unlock and reach their potential and realize their dreams through various mentor and personal development programs. Listen in to hear more of Shenin’s story. You too can realize your dreams and set a vision. I strongly believe there is value in community and that’s where mentorship and others play a large part in your journey. Enjoy!
