About Me
About Sharon Paxman
I’m Sharon Paxman — Founder of She Set The Standard, CEO of Isla & Me Skincare, Project Director, as well as Certified Mediator and Negotiator.
Throughout my career, I’ve led complex programmes across industries, from finance, charity, government and wellness but my greatest passion has always been helping women lead with confidence, balance, and authenticity.
As women, we’re often told to choose: be strong or be soft, be ambitious or be present, lead or nurture.
I believe we can do both and She Set The Standard was born from that belief.
This platform is about redefining what leadership looks and feels like for women today. It’s about creating space to grow, learn, and lead with empathy — without burning out or losing yourself in the process.
With a background in project management, negotiation, and human behaviour, I bring both structure and soul to leadership development. My approach blends proven leadership tools with wellness, psychology, and self-awareness, helping women unlock their full potential in their careers and personal lives.
Through She Set The Standard, I aim to create a global community of women who set their own standards for success, balance, and fulfilment.
