In this latest episode of Empowered in Tech: Women in Tech Netherlands Podcast, our host Ilaria Severi sits down with Joy Adamson, a product leader, solopreneur, and career coach, to explore the power of career pivots, intuition, and rewriting success on your own terms.
As we celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, this episode is a reminder of how far we’ve come—and how many new opportunities we have today thanks to the women who paved the way. For generations, women were told to follow a single path, often dictated by societal norms. But today, we have the power to define success for ourselves, to pivot when needed, and to build careers that align with our ambitions, not expectations.
And that’s exactly what this episode is about. Women in tech are often encouraged to lean in—climb the corporate ladder, follow the traditional path. But what if true success comes from leaning out—stepping away from what doesn’t serve us and choosing a career built on our own terms?
💡 What You’ll Learn:
✅ Why intuition is a career superpower
✅ How to navigate career transitions with confidence
✅ The importance of Plan B (and C!): Creating career security beyond one path
✅ Breaking free from what we think we “should” do and redefining success
✨ About Our Guest:
Originally from Argentina, Joy built her career across corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, and coaching, proving that career growth isn’t about following one path—it’s about creating multiple opportunities. Her journey is an inspiring reminder that we have more choices than ever before—choices that so many women before us could only dream of.
