The Career Changers

How to Overcome Poverty and Adversity and Rewrite Your Story

Season 9 Episode 14

In this episode, we tackle an extraordinary question: How can someone rise above poverty and rewrite their story to build the life of their dreams? 

Our guest is Dona Amelia, Co-Founder & Head of Member Service at EGN Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Before leading a network that empowers top executives, Dona’s multifaceted career included success as an award-winning TV Presenter, Actress, Singer, and DJ. But her journey started far from the spotlight—in a small village in Indonesia, where she grew up facing the harsh realities of extreme poverty, a challenge that fuelled her resilience, ambition, and determination. 

Today, she will share her remarkable journey and offer insights into how overcoming adversity can lead to incredible opportunities.
