Recorded at Acast Studios.
Do you believe in yourself? Without the applause, without the title, without shame? For 80% of women, the answer is no—and it’s holding us back. Self-doubt is the invisible pandemic stopping us from chasing dreams, climbing the ladder, and avoiding burnout.
The Limitless Equation is here to change that. This podcast uncovers the authentic leadership power of women running some of the most impressive businesses in Australia and gets them to share it with us. Each episode dives deep into the formula for breaking through our limits: Self-Leadership × Self-Care ÷ Superpowers = Self-Belief.
Each episode is a masterclass from women doing the work, teaching us how to lead with intention, care for ourselves, and own what makes us extraordinary. Because when we learn together, we rise together.
