How does one rise from a challenging early life to become a celebrated corporate executive and motivational speaker? Join me, Cassandra Crawley-Mayo, as I sit down with the incredible Victoria Pelletier to uncover her story of resilience and triumph. Victoria shares her journey from being born to a drug-addict teenage mother and facing severe abuse to her adoption into a lower socioeconomic family. Despite these hardships, she began working at age 11 and achieved the remarkable feat of becoming a COO by 24, all while balancing the responsibilities of new motherhood. In this episode, we explore her recognition as a top LGBTQ executive and influential business leader, along with her dedication to whole human leadership, personal branding, and DEI in corporate cultures.
In our engaging conversation, Victoria opens up about the transformative power of resilience and vulnerability. We delve into the importance of processing trauma to build "healthy resilience" and the role of supportive relationships in overcoming adversity. This episode also tackles the challenges of imposter syndrome and the necessity of authenticity in leadership roles. Victoria's profound insights reveal how emotional depth and perceived strength can coexist to create a truly impactful leadership style. Her personal anecdotes illustrate the competitive drive that propelled her forward and the shift in defining success from material wealth to fostering leadership and mentorship.
Finally, we explore the complexities of identity in leadership roles and the art of building a personal brand for lasting impact. Victoria shares her experiences as a trailblazer in the corporate world, navigating the challenges of being the youngest executive, a member of the LGBTQ community, and a woman in leadership. Known as the "Turnaround Queen" and the "CEO Whisperer," she emphasizes the importance of authenticity and whole-human leadership. Listen in for actionable steps to develop healthy resilience, integrate work and life, and build a personal brand that stands out. Victoria's story is a powerful testament to overcoming self-imposed barriers and becoming truly unstoppable.
