Welcome to the Finding Your EPIC® podcast.

In this episode, host Jacqueline Frost talks to Mona Husemöller, Head of Affluent Proposition at NatWest.

Mona shares how a reflective mindset has shaped both her career and her view of the world. Originally from Germany and having lived and worked across multiple countries, she explains how global experiences taught her adaptability, resilience and the value of diverse perspectives.

The conversation explores Mona’s early ambition to “make the world a better place” through international politics and the United Nations, and how she later realised that impact and purpose can take many forms. From consulting and retail to senior leadership in banking, she reflects on aligning her strengths, energy and working style with the environments where she could contribute most effectively.

At the heart of the episode is the idea of “epic thinking” - not overthinking, but thinking deeply enough to question assumptions, embrace change and take intentional action.
