Show Notes
In this episode of the Women in Safety podcast, Alanna Ball gets practical about career development in health and safety. She invites you to name your strengths, spot the barriers, and run a simple career assessment so you can choose your next step with intent. Personal growth and professional development work best when you set clear boundaries and back yourself.
Alanna talks about what energises you, what drains you, and why small, consistent actions beat grand plans that never leave the page. She covers self-advocacy in the workplace, how to ask for what you need, and why a supportive network makes progress stick. The goal is simple, build a career that serves your wellbeing, not the other way around.
Listen, then write down one strength you will use more this month and one boundary you will hold.
