Cheryl approached me at a women's event at Facebook a few years ago when she said,

you know, sometimes I feel like you've got some confidence issues.

And I blurt it out and said, yes, I do because I was fired for my own company.

And I tell her the story.

And she looks at me and she said, so what if I fired you right now?

From ABC, it's no limits.

I'm Rebecca Jarvis, and each week we're talking to the most bold and influential women

playing at the top of their game, trying to demystify success and what it really takes to get there.

And all the tradeoffs, whether you're looking for answers

or you just want to hear a good story, you're in the right place.

On today's episode, she's one of the key players at Facebook, right next to Mark Zuckerberg and

Cheryl Sandberg.

Carolyn Everson is the vice president of global marketing solutions,

and she's one of the major forces combating fake news and providing transparency to the social network's billions of daily users.

Carolyn Everson, welcome to No Limits.

Thank you. I'm very excited to be here. It's my first podcast ever.

I'm really excited to go into this new territory, the maiden voyage and podcast land with you. I'm excited too.

So Carolyn is the vice president of global marketing solutions at Facebook. She leads the company's

relationships with top marketers and agencies for all of Facebook's family of apps. Of course,

that includes Instagram and WhatsApp and Messenger. And you oversee a massive team of leaders around the world. Yes. Yes. I have a global team of over 2,000 people in over 34 countries.

34 countries. So what does your job look like, feel like?

I know you travel a bunch.
