About Our Speakers
Darrell Farrow
Career & Parenting Coach
Darrell is a geologist with over 30 years of experience leading and mentoring in a male-dominated industry. She's spent her career navigating the oldest of old-school boys clubs: the South African Mining Industry.
Darrell started her career as the first woman geologist employed in the mines and worked her way into senior technical management. All while balancing a successful career with raising a family and creating an equal parenting partnership with her husband.
Darrell believes whole-heartedly that it is possible for women to be successful and step out of the roles and patterns they've learned from a young age. Now Darrell is a leadership coach working with ambitious women who want to achieve their career goals while successfully parenting and leading balanced lives.
Holly Burton
Leadership Coach for Women in Male-Dominated Industries
Holly is a leadership coach for women in male-dominated industries. She works one-on-one with ambitious women to help them lead, get promoted, and create the careers they actually want in industries they love.
As a mining engineer for the first ten years of her career, Holly was exposed to one of the most male-dominated spaces -- just 17% female. She uses the unique perspective she gained as a woman in mining, alongside her obsessive nerdiness for all things feminism, leadership, and career to help women create the working world they deserve while they wait for the rest of society to catch up.
