Episode Details

What does it take to lead in tech, especially when you don’t fit the mould?

In this episode, Sonia sits down with Meeky Hwang, co-founder and CEO of Ndevr, a WordPress development agency trusted by global brands like Bloomberg, Forbes, and Sony. But this isn’t a conversation about code, it’s about the quiet power of resilience, leadership, and building a business as a woman in a male-dominated industry.

Meeky shares her real, raw story, from accidentally starting a company to buying out a co-founder and learning to let go (even when it hurts). You’ll hear how she built credibility with major clients not by being the loudest in the room but by being the most consistent. Plus, she opens up about burnout, journaling, impostor syndrome, and what founders can do when they feel stuck or alone.

You’ll learn:

• Why being “quiet” can be a superpower in leadership
• The hardest decisions she’s had to make as a founder
• What to do when scaling feels impossible
• How community and honesty can fuel long-term resilience

Whether you’re an early-stage founder or deep in the trenches, this episode reminds you that you don’t have to have it all figured out, you have to keep showing up.
