This week’s “How She Finds Purpose” insight comes from Pamela Thompson. She says:

What I know to be true, as women, it's very important that we support one another.

“Doing more than being and giving more than receiving, and often feeling that you can't reach out for help. And to the women, I would say that it's not a sign of weakness to reach out for support. Because I don't know about you, but the way I was raised, it was like I was meant to feel, it could have been inadvertently, that if you reached out, it was a sign of weakness. Whereas, what I know to be true, as women, it's very important that we support one another.”

Pamela Thompson is the founder of Female Wave of Change Canada, which is a national member based nonprofit and she believes that feminine leadership holds the key to creating a better world.

She's also the author of two best selling books, Learning to Dance with Life, A Guide for High Achieving Women and The Exploits of Minerva, Reflections of a 60 Something Woman, and is currently working on her third.

Pamela finds purpose in sharing her insightful stories and actionable strategies on how to navigate change, lead in uncertain times, and thrive in life and work.

In this episode we discussed:

• how Pamela’s passion for travel and making an impact was influenced early on by her parents
• her experiences in so many different countries globally
• how burnout affected, changed and led to developing her purpose supporting women after noticing how many driven women succumb to illness and stress.
