SHE WARRIORS - Trudy Kerr with Helga Ellul S1/EP2

Every woman has a story, but some are more ambitious and adventurous than others.

Helga Ellul’s story is one that leaves listeners speechless, in awe of this trailblazer, and inspiring in every way imaginable which makes her the very best guest of The SHE WARRIORS, because we all need to be challenged and inspired by other women, to aim higher, to motivated to be the very best we can be.

Helga’s journey is not only an outstanding career story, a breath taking personal tale - the story of a woman travelling thousands of kilometres to help build one of the toy industry’s biggest success stories, in a country she had never been to before - but this is also the story of a daughter, a mum, a wife, an ambitious employee, a CEO, a company president, an entrepreneur, a mentor, an adventurer, a philanthropist and a feisty young lady who didn’t compromise, didn’t take no for an answer and who has pushed boundaries at every stage of her life.

In this edition of SHE WARRIORS Helga Ellul sits down with Trudy Kerr for a very different interview sharing parts of her journey never heard before. In this conversation Helga shares the story of her childhood growing up in post war Germany, her move to Malta in her the 70s - driving across Europe in a brightly painted VW Beetle, the rebellious hippy turned into multi million Euro company CEO. The ladies talk about family values, the challenge of balancing a career with family, the importance of the her children and the secret to a great marriage.

Helga Ellul is a pioneer - a woman before her time - and in this conversation she shares her experiences of criticism from other women, her challenge to connect and create friendships, women’s reluctance to support other women, women who are creating change, the importance mentoring others women, and the most important lessons from a life well lived.

In an interview like no other, be inspired, be empowered and learn from a woman who didn’t let any obstacle stop her.
