In this episode of the Women in Safety podcast, I sit down with the remarkable Maddison Costello, the 2024 Young Professional of the Year. Maddison's journey into the health and safety profession is nothing short of inspiring, especially as she navigates the challenges of being a young woman in the mining industry—a field traditionally dominated by men.
We explore her experiences in a competitive graduate program, where she discovered the importance of mentorship and how it shaped her path. Maddison also highlights the value of networking, continuous learning, and celebrating small wins along the way. For those just starting out or looking to reinvigorate their careers, this conversation is filled with honest reflections and actionable insights.
Maddison shares how self-advocacy and a positive attitude have opened doors, and why diversity in leadership is so critical to building a stronger workplace culture. If you’re searching for inspiration or advice on how to navigate your own career challenges, Madison’s story will leave you feeling motivated and ready to take that next step.
