Debs Paterson is a multi-award winning director of premier drama shows - especially fantasy and sci-fi - for the likes of Netflix, Showtime and now Disney+. Check out her work helming the resurrection of the Willow saga.
But her journey to the top required unusual levels of resilience, persistence and positivity: she had to recover from a near-death experience and rebuild her career from scratch not once, but twice.
Even then, the success she wanted nearly eluded her.
If you need to listen to an inspiring story of possibility in the face of adversity then this is the one for you.
Hosted by pioneering new media entrepreneur Sam Barcroft, in this episode Sam explores:
- How to face up to the reality that the trajectory of your career will definitely not pan out as you expect it to.
- The power of finding positivity, of finding hope in the most unlikely moments to carry you through the toughest challenges.
- And why being adaptable is vital on your journey to the stars
