EPISODE 114 : Brigid Koenig CEO Sammy D Foundation

I couldn’t have picked a more perfect guest to be my first guest for 2023 … Brigid Koenig …

Brigid is the CEO of the Sammy D Foundation, she is a recent recipient of the South Australia’s young achievers award for the 40 Under 40 and an amazing mumma to 2 beautiful young ladies that are watching on as their mum shows them the path to having it all. And a beautiful friend of mine. I’m so excited to finally get to share her with you all.

Take a listen as we talk about everything from landing the role of CEO, juggling motherhood and whilst she ain’t the finance manager … numbers are important to understanding the story they tell. A x
