PWC Partner Anna Blackman on 'Controlling the Controllables'

This week I was joined by the brilliant Anna Blackman, a partner at PWC. Starting at PWC in her early twenties, Anna has now been at the company for 19 years. Her twenties decade was predominantly spent working her way up the corporate ladder in auditing; however, though it may appear like a smooth ascent on paper, Anna struggled to adapt to the corporate environment in the beginning and opens up in this interview about how this affected her mental health. We talk about getting married in your early twenties, feeling like the world is judging you, catastrophizing,  surviving and thriving in a corporate environment and that learning how to control the controllables while letting the other shit slide, may just be the most valuable lesson of all. Our favourite Millenial Minesweeper quote this week was ' Marriage just consumes less space in the lives of single women and in our culture than it once did ' - Stylist Magazine Hosted on Acast.
