In this episode of Career Sparks with Val ✨, host Val chats with Simone Engbo Hansen, Global Content Lead at Precis, who shares her journey from studying rhetoric to becoming a content marketing leader.

They discuss career evolution, leadership, solopreneurship, and finding purpose at work.

Key takeaways:

• Know yourself: self-awareness is key to understanding what career path suits you best—whether as a leader, specialist, or entrepreneur.
• Solopreneurship isn't for everyone: while it offers freedom, it also comes with uncertainty, pressure, and financial fluctuations.
• Leadership requires balance: managing people isn’t just about strategy—it’s about empathy, support, and helping others grow.
• Company culture matters: the best workplaces empower employees by offering flexibility and valuing their contributions.
• Working internationally broadens perspectives: engaging with different cultures fosters personal growth, adaptability, and better communication skills.
• Danish work culture can feel reserved: but that doesn’t mean people are unapproachable—building connections takes time and understanding.
• Hard work > luck: career growth isn’t just about opportunity—it’s about skills, perseverance, and taking ownership of your path.

If you’re considering a career shift, leadership role, or entrepreneurship, this episode is for you.
