I’m a big believer that the positive energy between people is intentional and something which we attract precisely when we need that extra umppphh in our lives. 
I immediately felt a connection towards Jeanne Peterson when we met in her London office last November. She emitted that hit-the-ground-running energy which any working woman recognizes only too well. You know the kind where we’re buzzing about our business with a killer smile that speaks: “Small talk over, let’s get to work!” I had found a little bit of Manhattan in this woman and I was lovin’ it.

Jeanne Peterson has broken all barriers when it comes to realizing the personal and professional life she wanted. Read on for her powerful interview where she dishes on how
hitting the glass ceiling early on in her career ignited her to “throw away the paradigm“
and start living by her own rules. You’ll learn how she hopped a flight twice from her home in Denmark to London to interview for a position at global IT consulting firm Project Brokers that didn’t exist, reversed roles with her husband and morphed into the sole breadwinner for her family. On a mission, Jeanne wanted to move from Europe and live in Toronto near her parents. One year later, she’s now opening up her new office in Canada. Her career should be a case study highlighting that not just academics can get us to where we want to be, but also an
unyielding dogged faith in yourself when the voices in your head scream self-doubt.
My favorite quote from our interview: “Women can and do achieve much more than men. They are always more open to ideas”. Without further ado here’s the
inspiring interview with working mum of two, Jeanne Peterson.
