32. Marjorie Ngwenya on believing we’re limitless, taking on challenging roles and finding purpose

My next guest, Marjorie Ngwenya, is a leadership coach, author and speaker and is a former executive at both Liberty Group South Africa and Old Mutual’s African operations. She was both the youngest and first black female President of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries in the United Kingdom. She broke down her own internal barriers to embrace and subsequently thrive in her appointment and now she’s written a book to help us do the same.  Marjorie takes on challenges head on, bravely processes difficult emotions and is not afraid to let go of an identity or a long-held dream if it no longer supports who she’s becoming. Her new book “Empowered Evolution: Shape Your Mindset, Discover Your Meaning and Thrive With Momentum” helps you overcome limiting mindsets so that you can go after a career that truly gives you meaning, in a way that’s practical and strategic, without running out of momentum on the way there.
