We Whistle Global: For Global Leaders of Caribbean Heritage with Stacey Luces and Denise Williams

Описание: Two transformative leaders. One vision of amplifying excellence within the global Caribbean diaspora. This is the moment the world meets WE WHISTLE GLOBAL.

In this landmark episode of Beyond the Quo, host Stacey Luces flips the script and hands the mic to guest host Sam Ghanem for a candid and deeply inspiring conversation with her WE WHISTLE GLOBAL co-founder, Denise Williams. Together, they reveal the story behind the world’s first and only power hub for global leaders of Caribbean heritage and their partners.
Born from a shared calling to reimagine Caribbean diaspora leadership, community, and legacy, WE WHISTLE GLOBAL is more than a network; it is a movement of high performers who have achieved individual success and are now focused on creating collective impact. Here, leaders find peers who share their story, values, and ambitions. Across finance, enterprise, technology, the creative and cultural industries, philanthropy, and public life, members access opportunities, investments, and partnerships that expand wealth and influence. It is a space that feels like home, powered by a platform designed to propel them forward.

The name of this power hub draws its inspiration from a natural phenomenon found only in the Caribbean Sea. When the warm currents of the Caribbean meet opposing oceanic forces, it emits a pulse so powerful, it can be heard from space. Scientists call it the Rossby Whistle. For Stacey and Denise, this is inspiration for WE WHISTLE GLOBAL: a platform that harnesses the energy of Caribbean excellence and the strength of an enduring legacy to connect leaders who rise, innovate, and lead despite significant odds, driving collective growth.

From their parallel leadership paths across 30+ countries, building billion-dollar companies and engineering membership organizations, to the moment Stacey and Denise realized they had the same vision from different perspectives - this episode is both a founders’ story and a masterclass in purpose-driven leadership. Together, they unpack what it takes to build something global from the ground up: the courage to begin before you feel ready, the power of trust, and the responsibility to a purpose and community far greater than their personal ambitions.

As you listen, you will hear how these two leaders are turning an idea into a global ecosystem built to connect, elevate, and empower members and strategic partners. You will also hear their heart, the laughter, the lessons, and the joy of finding a partner who matches their fire, as well as the unwavering determination to Whistle with Love. Forces that make this movement unmistakably Caribbean and unapologetically world-class.

For every leader who has stood alone in rooms they helped create, this conversation is your signal: an invitation to build wealth, impact, and legacy with people who move like you. This is where global leaders connect, and where you belong.

🎧 Tune in to experience the birth of a global movement and discover how WHISTLE is shaping the next generation of Caribbean influence, one connection at a time.
