Episode Synopsis

What if having it all means holding a lot?This week I’m joined by the brilliant and driven Tasneem Bhamji, Chief Digital Officer at a major UK bank, who’s spent her life being the one who holds it all together—at work, at home, and for her family.We talk about growing up with a scarcity mindset, building generational wealth, and navigating the pressure of being “the successful one” as a woman of colour in leadership. From being the reliable eldest daughter to becoming a spokesperson for others who don’t see themselves in the room, Tas shares how her grit got her far—but also how heavy it can feel to always get it right.This is a raw, funny, and moving conversation about ambition, responsibility, and redefining what success means when you're carrying more than just your own dreams.If you’ve ever felt like success came with a lot of strings attached, this one’s for you.✨ Follow Tas @officerealtalk📲 Follow us on Instagram: @theweirdyearspodcast🚀 New episodes every Tuesday – hit subscribe
