More Than a Career Woman: The Overlooked Pressure of Being Successful Tasneem Bhamji
Description
What if having it all means holding a lot?
This week I’m joined by the brilliant and driven Tasneem Bhamji, Chief Digital Officer at a major UK bank, who’s spent her life being the one who holds it all together—at work, at home, and for her family.
We talk about growing up with a scarcity mindset, building generational wealth, and navigating the pressure of being “the successful one” as a woman of colour in leadership. From being the reliable eldest daughter to becoming a spokesperson for others who don’t see themselves in the room, Tas shares how her grit got her far—but also how heavy it can feel to always get it right.
This is a raw, funny, and moving conversation about ambition, responsibility, and redefining what success means when you're carrying more than just your own dreams.
If you’ve ever felt like success came with a lot of strings attached, this one’s for you.
