In this episode, we sit down with Fiona Cullen — former elite athlete turned founder of Performistry — to talk about building a leadership training business, the mindset shifts required to lead well, and what it actually looks like to hire and work with offshore support.

Fiona shares her journey from competing internationally as a sprinter and bobsledder to building a leadership consultancy that's trained over 2,000 people, why confidence (not skill) is the #1 thing leaders struggle with, and the real story of onboarding her virtual assistant — including the mistakes, the mindset shifts, and the results.

If you're a business owner thinking about hiring offshore support, or a leader wanting to build real confidence in your team, this conversation is packed with practical insight.
