In this episode I have a chat with Yvonne Dam who shares with us her story of being a workaholic to becoming the CEO of her own life. Yvonne's childhood wasn't easy; she grew up knowing how to please, how to be silent and how to say the right things people wanted to hear. When she started working for a large audit firm, at first she did very well. She enjoyed working there, and did rise the corporate ladder- yet, lost herself along the way. Yvonne's mission is to show others they don't have to work 24/7 to become successful.
