Amanda sits down with Dee Poku, founder and CEO of The WIE Suite, for a conversation on leadership, sponsorship, and helping women achieve success on their own terms. From her early career in film marketing to building one of the world's leading communities for women executives and entrepreneurs, Dee shares why relationships matter most when they lead to action—not just advice.
Together, they explore the difference between mentorship and sponsorship, why leadership can become increasingly isolating, and how women can use their influence to create meaningful opportunities for one another. The conversation also examines self-belief, imposter syndrome, reciprocity, and why the next chapter of leadership is about turning experience, access, and success into lasting impact.
