  • #87 Lisa Ward: Modern Politics is Failing Our Communities
    Jan 16 2026

    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Lisa Ward, CEO of the Ethnic Communities Council of Queensland (ECCQ), for a masterclass in authentic leadership. Lisa shares her incredible journey—from working under Prime Ministers Bob Hawke and Paul Keating to leading one of Australia’s most vital multicultural advocacy bodies.

    Lisa pulls no punches as she critiques the "lazy politics of division," the hidden "inhumanity" in current migration shifts, and the high-stakes reform of the Australian Aged Care Act. This isn't just a policy talk; it’s a deep dive into the struggle with self-confidence, the power of deep listening, and why client-centric leadership is the only way to survive in a diversifying market.

    What's in the episode:

    -Political Wisdom: Lessons learned from the "Big Names" of Australian politics.

    -Authentic Leadership: How to handle the "not enough" feeling while performing at a high level.

    -The Future of Australia: Understanding why a Population Policy is the missing piece of our housing and infrastructure puzzle.

    -Identity & Labels: A provocative look at why terms like "CALD" or "Marginalised" might be doing more harm than good.

  • #86 Andrea Musulin: "Child sexually abused by his...| Surviving Childhood Sexual Abuse"
    Jan 16 2026

    Dive into the incredible journey of Andrea Musulin, a pioneer in child protection and protective behaviours education in Western Australia. In this special conversation, Andrea shares the powerful, life-defining moments that led her from the family market garden into a career in policing and ultimately sparked a 20-year mission to reform how the justice system responds to vulnerable children.

    The conversation is an honest look at the emotional toll of frontline policing and the deep-seated faith that guided her through difficult transitions—from the police force to the Catholic Church, and now, as the Director of Child Focused Safety Service.

  • #83 Sheree Schonian: The Lie of the Hopeless Romantic | 16 Years of Silent Abuse
    Jan 3 2026

    In this raw and unforgettable episode, our guest Sheree Schonian shares her journey from observing domestic violence (DV) as a child, to finding herself trapped in a 16-year abusive relationship. She reveals the shocking truth about how emotional manipulation and a desperate need for love nearly cost her everything, and how she finally found the strength to declare: "It stops with me."

    Sheree Schonian's story is a powerful exploration of how childhood trauma can condition a person to accept the unacceptable. She delves into the psychological toll of being hyper-vigilant, the heartbreaking moment her young child was forced to confront the reality of abuse, and the final, violent escape that led her to rebuild her life with a white picket fence and a commitment to helping others.

  • Jo sheppard: AI, Energy Crisis & The Future of Australian Agriculture
    Dec 31 2025

    In this powerful episode, we dive deep with Joe Sheppard, CEO of the Queensland Farmers Federation, to discuss how lessons learned on a remote Australian farm translate directly into modern leadership, resilience, and navigating the complexities of AI and energy shortages.

    If you're struggling to find your purpose in a world defined by fast-paced tech and global crises, this conversation offers a powerful, actionable path forward.

    -The AI and Energy Challenge: Why the adoption of AI and large data centers is creating an urgent national conversation around energy production and resource management in Australia.

    -The Power of Daily Purpose: Joe shares her incredibly human philosophy on leadership—why you don't need a 10-year plan, but you must have a 'why for today.' (A crucial message for anyone feeling overwhelmed by a lack of focus.)

    -Resilience & The Farm Ethic: How growing up with droughts, floods, and fires instilled a foundational work ethic centered on being productive and adding value "day-by-day."

    -Water and Energy Security: The future of microgrids, distributed energy, and why water security is critical to both community survival and the national economy.

    -Leadership is a Team Sport: Why true leadership is not about being "the person at the front," but about everyone owning their role in the team dynamic.

  • #81 Samar Aoun: Death Literacy to End Social Isolation and Loneliness
    Dec 28 2025

    We've been taught that when we lose someone, we need a professional, a pill, or a therapist. But what if most of our grief could be handled by the one thing we've lost: community?

    In this powerful episode, Professor Samar Aoun reveals how modern society has pathologised and medicalised two of the most universal human experiences—death and grief—leading to a devastating epidemic of loneliness and social isolation.

  • #80 Ashley McCarthy: Stop People-Pleasing: The 50/50 Rule for Effective Leadership
    Dec 28 2025

    Ashley McCarthy shares her journey from feeling the cultural shock of being a minority to becoming the first female supervisor in a male-dominated environment. If you’ve ever felt "different" in your career, this episode is for you.

    She reveals the shocking question she and her peers faced and how she learned to lead in rooms where the entire conversation would suddenly "go silent."


    -The Shock: "A guy directly asked her, 'Why aren't you in the kitchen?' I was full seriousness."

    -The Truth About Leadership: "I burnt a lot of energy for people I was never going to win over. You need to accept that you will be liked by 50%, and disliked by 50%."

    -Finding Your Superpower: How a "quiet leader" learned that when she talked, "everyone listened."

    -The Ultimate Fixer: Ashley explains why she became the person organisations bring in "when things aren't working."


    We dive deep into the essential, non-technical skills every professional—especially women—needs to thrive: from building confidence in young girls in STEM to developing an approachable leadership style that actually "gets stuff done."
