In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with the amazing Sarah Potts — a gal I had the pleasure of crossing paths with during my time at Southern Cross Austereo, where she was the General Manager of both the Sydney and Central Coast offices.
From starting out as a Legal EA to leading one of the biggest media teams in the country, Sarah’s 15-year journey at SCA is anything but traditional — and that’s what makes it so inspiring.
She shares how she climbed the ladder by being unapologetically herself, saying yes to opportunities, and leaning into mentorship and team culture. Her approach to leadership is authentic, passionate, and grounded in the belief that people always come first.
If you're in the corporate world, chasing a leadership role, or just love hearing from women who are doing things their own way — this one's for you.
💬 We talk:
Going from EA to GM (and owning it)
Women in leadership (with heart)
Mentorship, growth & saying yes
Creating positive team culture
Why being real is your biggest asset
Thank you, Sarah, for finally saying yes — I wasn’t taking no for an answer. Hehe. We hope you love this chat!
