When your secondary school is more focused on controlling your behaviour than understanding the root cause, and your headmistress tells you that you'll be "a failure" - how do you find the confidence and motivation to create success on your own terms and break some serious taboos?In this episode, Emma-Jane Taylor shares her incredible career story which began with a whirlwind of dancing, temping, hairdressing and earning a living in Spain, to finding herself selling printer warranties. Finding success in a 'normal' job proved to her that she wanted to be an entrepreneur. So Emma-Jane created a portfolio of wellbeing businesses including a dance school which has just celebrated its 23rd anniversary.Then, six years ago, Emma-Jane revealed that she was a survivor of child sex abuse and, rather than it destroying her career, the revelation led to her becoming an author, advocate, media commentator and corporate trainer. Today, Emma-Jane is championing a conversation which many people are reluctant to have. In doing so, she is making sure the voices of people who have suffered are being heard - and encouraging Government to better support victims while holding the perpetrators to account.To find out more about Emma-Jane's work, head to: https://www.emmajanetaylor.com/ Hosted on Acast.
