Welcome to Emerald de Leeuw.com
Hello there!
This blog focuses on my life as a female privacy professional and former entrepreneur. For quite some time I have wanted to launch a new website. I’ve had websites in the past that focused on privacy laws, data protection and ethical issues surrounding data, but I never truly enjoyed writing for them. The main reason for this was that I love so many other things as well, it does not always have to be so serious. As a very ambitious person I have arrived in a lifestyle of a business professional in her thirties who does a lot of professional speaking. This lifestyle comes with certain demands on appearance as well as travel requirements. I love beauty, travel, fashion, art as well as academic and professional pursuits. Here I will write about it all.
I realise this is not a great strategy for building a successful blog as essentially the site should be about one thing, but no one is just about one thing, right? Plus, that is not really the point. Examples of things you might find here include:
What rights do you have online when it comes to your data?
How creepy is TikTok?
What books am I reading this year
How to prepare for a TED talk (I gave one in 2019)
How to survive a long haul flight and not look like the crypt-keeper
Skincare I cannot live without
You get the idea. Please subscribe to my newsletter if you’d like to hear more from me. Also, if you have any suggestions on topics I should cover, please do let me know in the comments.
With gratitude,
Emerald
