22. Bouchra Hashassi: Both her hands on the Steering Wheel
I'd like you to close your eyes for a moment. Go ahead, do it.
I want you to think of the biggest truck out there.
Now I'd like you to think of who's driving that truck.
Now think of where that truck goes to get washed, after a night of driving.
And who do you see running that truckwash place?
Open your eyes now.
I bet the last thing you pictured is a petite, determined and no-nonsense WOMAN!
This is a very special episode, released on International Day of Women's Rights, where Bouchra Hashassi shares her very unique story:
- Navigating a career in Banking and becoming a Mom at a young age simultaneously
- Taking private diction lessons so that her native accent was almost wiped out when she spoke Dutch
- How she got the idea to start a truckwash company (hint, like with most ideas, it was a very personal reason)
- How she handled sexism and racism on daily basis in a highly male dominated industry and continued to push through
- How her truckwash company became the largest upon its launch in the entire Belgium and Netherlands
- Her favourite tips for jobseekers and entrepreneurs when faced with obstacles and how she converted every single obstacle into an opportunity...
and so much more.
