    • You Can’t Have It All. And That’s the Point. A Candid Conversation with Dorit Posdorf
      Jan 7 2026

      In this episode of Women Lead, host Nadia Koski sits down with Dorit Posdorf, an experienced marketing executive, to explore what leadership, growth, and self-awareness truly entail behind the scenes.

      From her early days in consulting to senior roles across e-commerce, fashion, beauty, and digital health, Dorit shares a refreshingly honest view of her career journey, one shaped by adaptability, strong networks, and the courage to say, "no". Together, they challenge the myth of “having it all,” explore common misconceptions around mentorship, and discuss why personal responsibility is at the heart of professional growth.

      Dorit also speaks candidly about energy management - what lights you up, and what drains you - setting boundaries, and why leadership isn’t the only valid definition of success. The conversation wraps up with the two exchanging their points of view on the future of work, including how leaders can integrate AI thoughtfully and responsibly.

      A must-listen for anyone navigating career decisions, leadership paths, or personal growth, especially women redefining success on their own terms.

    • Navigating the Future of Media and Advertising with Verena Gründel
      Dec 17 2025

      In this year-end wrap episode of Women Lead, Nadia Koski sits down with Verena Gründel, Host and Director of Brand & Communications, at DMEXCO, and one of Germany’s Top 100 Most Influential Women, for a timely and thought-provoking conversation on where media, marketing, and communication are heading next going into 2026.

      As the industry reflects on a year shaped by rapid innovation, awards season, and cultural shifts, Verena shares her perspective on the trends, tensions, and transformations that will define 2026. From standout purpose-driven campaigns and industry events to the real, practical role of AI beyond the hype, this conversation cuts through the noise to focus on what truly matters.

      Together, they explore how generative AI is changing creativity, search, and shopping behavior, why ROI and brand visibility are becoming more critical as budgets tighten, and whether we’re already seeing signs of AI fatigue—or simply a recalibration toward more emotional, human storytelling.

      Beyond industry trends, Verena opens up about her own personal branding journey: the habits, mindset shifts, and internal barriers she had to confront to show up consistently and authentically in a fast-moving, highly visible environment. She also shares why listening, asking better questions, and communicating with intention may be some of the most underrated leadership skills today.

      In this episode, you’ll learn:

      • How AI is reshaping consumer behavior and what this means for creativity, search, ROI, and brand visibility in 2026.
      • Why authenticity and consistency are becoming essential in personal branding, and how visibility can be approached as a service, not self-promotion.
      • How curiosity, listening, and intentional communication can drive stronger insights, relationships, and business outcomes.

      This is a forward-looking and future-proofing conversation with one of the industry’s most influential voices, perfect for understanding how to navigate the rapidly changing trends and workflows in media, marketing, and leadership.

    • Unapologetic Holistic Leadership with Shazia Ginai
      Dec 11 2025

      In this powerful episode of Women Lead, host Nadia Koski sits down with Shazia Ginai, Global VP of Consulting at Lumen Research and founder of Exhale Expand, to explore a career journey defined by courage, reinvention, and deep authenticity. Trained in science and shaped by lived experience, Shazia shares how she carved a path into global leadership while staying grounded in holistic wellbeing and purpose-driven growth.

      Together, they unpack the realities of navigating toxic workplace cultures, the pivotal moments that pushed Shazia to define her work on her own terms, and how advocating for women’s health—especially endometriosis—became both a personal mission and a systemic call to action.

      Shazia also opens up about the transformative power of yoga, breathwork, and nervous system regulation in leadership, and why building a supportive community of women has been essential to her resilience and confidence. Her mantra, “I am unapologetic about what I want,” becomes a throughline in this conversation, offering a roadmap for women who want to negotiate for more choice, freedom, autonomy, and balance in their careers.

      Listeners will walk away with insights on how workplace culture shapes leadership, why self-trust and embodiment matter, and how to advocate for yourself and for others with clarity and courage.

      In this episode, you’ll learn:

      • How to recognize the impact of workplace culture on your personal and professional growth, and what authentic leadership can look like even in environments that don’t nurture it.
      • Why holistic growth matters, and how practices like yoga, breathwork, and self-awareness can strengthen your leadership presence and decision-making.
      • What it truly means to advocate—for yourself, for women’s health, and for your community—and how connection and support can empower you to be unapologetically confident.

      This conversation is a reflection on self-trust, inner grounding, and the power of taking a breath—literally and figuratively.
