In this episode, I'm joined by Anne Devereux-Mills, former CEO of ad agencies and founder of Parlay House, to discuss the bold and boundary-pushing choices Anne made in her career and beyond.

Anne shares how she navigated the male-dominated executive suite as CEO of ad agencies, taking risks to draw lines between her work and family life, even when it went against the norms.

She opens up about the difficult, vulnerable conversations she had to have -- calling out inappropriate behavior from powerful colleagues, discussing personal health challenges, and confronting its aftermath.

But Anne's biggest risk-taking may have been inviting 12 complete strangers into her home to have the kind of raw and real conversations that are forbidden in the workplace.

This leap of faith led to the creation of Parlay House (full disclosure: I'm a member of Parlay House), a community that empowers women to shed their work personas and connect on a deeper, human-to-human level.
