Sounds Like Harvey – Women in the Workforce tomorrow!
What happens when life takes you away from your hometown, only to bring you back years later with a wealth of experience and a fresh perspective?
In our next episode, Station Coordinator and volunteer announcer Verity Hyde chats with Paige Leeson about her journey from growing up in Harvey, leaving at 18, and returning at 35.
Paige reflects on her first jobs, working in retail, teaching swimming, supporting communities in the Wheatbelt, and her decision to pursue degrees in Exercise and Sport Science and Public Health. Along the way, she discovered that there’s no single path to a fulfilling career and that university isn’t always the be-all and end-all.
No matter where her career took her, one thing remained constant — a passion for people and community.
Now working with Playgroup WA, Paige shares what it's been like navigating different roles, qualifications and career changes, while balancing family life and settling back into the Harvey community.
It's a relaxed and honest conversation about career twists and turns, finding your purpose, and embracing opportunities as they come.
