115. COMEBACK – Steph Ogden – CEO HDI Global – Stop! Step away from the business on maternity leave (it won’t fall apart without you).

Hello Bright Minds, Stephanie Ogden, loves her job. She is the UK CEO of the global insurance company HDI Global and she was an absolute treat to chat to because she was so open and honest. We get into the nitty gritty of how to step away from your business when you are holding the top job or another really senior role. But this is not just an episode for senior leaders – if you work in a big organisation, a male dominated environment or you are ambitious for more in your career this listen will be worth your time.

This episode is sponsored by Little Dish, a company who's values chime with mine and I am delighted to have their partnership.

**Raising & Rising** A leadership career retreat for mothers in senior roles is happening on Monday 9th February 2026. Details here.
