Episode 17: Embracing Your Inner Ladyboss — A Conversation with Farina Situmorang

Episode 17: Embracing Your Inner Ladyboss — A Conversation with Farina Situmorang

Swedian's out for the next couple of episodes — so for the next few weeks, we'll have some special guests on the show to talk about feminism, politics, and everything in between! In this episode, we have Jakarta’s resident #ladyboss Farina Situmorang, Founder and CEO of Catalyst Strategy, as well as the mind behind the widely lauded and extremely successful social media campaign for the 2014 Jokowi-JK presidential campaign. We talk about female leadership and how female executives are often asked about “the struggles of being a female leader,” without necessarily talking about the virtues and strengths of female leadership. Farina shares her insights on tantric philosophy and its concept of feminine and masculine energies. Finally, we talk with Farina about the journey of “reclaiming one’s femininity” as bossy ladies — and how, ultimately, our path to happiness is about embracing ourselves, our own life’s path, rejecting society’s notion of a formula-for-everyone, and simply caring less about what others think about you! Here’s to female empowerment in the workplace!
