Clare Muscutt talks with Stacy Sherman about our mother’s influence and advice on female leadership.

"You are the cupcake, everyone else is just the sprinkles"


 


Launching today’s podcast with a backdrop of uncertainty about
the US election, Corona deaths rising again, whole countries
returning to lockdown and facing heightened terror threats, I
wanted to focus on something lighter.


 


I met the CX pocket rocket, Head of CX and Employee Engagement
and Schindler, Founder of DoingCXRight and all round rising CX
star, Stacy Sherman, earlier this year and when she told me this
piece of advice passed down from her stock trader mom, it was not
only delightful, but it really stuck with me.


 


As women we are so often guilty of prioritising others, building
our lives around partners and careers that we sometimes lose
sight of the fact that WE are the cupcake. 


 


Wherever you are today, whatever is going on around you, put
yourself first and ensure you only invite people, jobs,
relationships, friends and co-workers into your life who add
value to your experience.


 


We can learn a lot from the ‘Stacy’s Moms’ of the world who
struck out in pursuit of the lives they wanted to lead. Tune in
to hear us talk about more of the lessons we learned from our
mothers, Stacy’s metric rise to CX fame and her advice on female
leadership now.
