Hey, thanks for tuning into the Weekend Rewind – although technically we’re only rewinding one day to my latest Talk the Walk episode with the Rock Star of Consulting himself, Alan Weiss. This one’s a bit spicy. Alan threw me a challenge live, and truthfully? I missed the shot. No…
This episode’s straight from the frustration files — and one I think we all need to hear. I just published a new piece on my Substack called “The Dark Arts of Interrupting Someone” and honestly, I had way too much fun writing it. So in true 'Work Fame' spirit, I…
In today's episode, I'm sharing one of my most frustrating habits: overcommitting. I tell a recent story involving a great opportunity, a good friend, and the hard realisation that sometimes saying no is actually the smart, strategic thing to do — even when everything looks perfectly aligned. You'll hear: •…
Join us for our next Talk the Walk livestream. Are you chasing opportunities that drain your time, energy, and sanity? In this episode of Talk the Walk, we’re unpacking why even the smartest people sometimes look for business in all the wrong places, and how to course-correct fast. Join Alan…
I'm recording this one on the move — literally walking through a park in Dandenong, Victoria. You might even hear a few native birds in the background. This morning, I woke up super early (like, 3:50 AM early), and even though it was freezing cold (13 degrees, which is basically…
Today’s episode is a short one, recorded live from Dandenong, Victoria. I share a chat I had with my Uber driver, Logan, on the way to the airport — and it spiralled into a massive truth bomb: All problems are communication problems. We talked about why confronting others (and even…
I sat down with former national TaeKwonDo athlete and amateur boxer Jessica Borg (https://www.instagram.com/__neext_/) . We recorded this one at my house. Jess shared the wild story of going from being on track for the Tokyo Olympics, to being medically retired by 26. She opens up about what it really…
Today, I’m replaying a conversation that kicked off an amazing friendship. This was the first time I ever spoke with Andy Storch (https://andystorch.com/) — now, he’s one of my best mates in the industry. We voice note each other across time zones, I spoke at his Talent Development Think Tank…
Today I’m joined by one of the most thoughtful teachers I’ve ever met: Sean D’Souza from Psychotactics (https://www.psychotactics.com/) in New Zealand. I first saw Sean speak at the We Are Podcast conference — and let me tell you, I was hooked. Not just because he was engaging and entertaining (he…
Today’s episode is brought to you… from the front seat of my car. Yep, I just did one of those chaotic pre-public holiday grocery shops (you know the ones where the trolley has a mind of its own), only to be ambushed by a torrential downpour on my way out.…
Today’s episode isn’t polished. It’s a reflection on someone who made a big impact on my life: Lindsay Gasman. He was the kind of guy who gave you a nickname the first time he met you. Who said yes to wearing a Santa suit in 38-degree heat. Who would stop…
Last night I stumbled across an article in the Wall Street Journal called “Go Delete Yourself from the Internet. Seriously. Here’s How. (https://www.wsj.com/tech/personal-tech/personal-information-privacy-deleteme-2ceea2ad) ” Naturally, I clicked. And wow. It introduced me to a tool from Google I’d never heard of before: 👉 myactivity.google.com (https://myactivity.google.com) Here’s what I learned (and…
This episode is a real-time example of how I’m using AI tools like Manus to solve actual problems — not hypothetical ones. You’ll hear how I used it to: • Plan a last-minute status run to retain my Qantas Gold (yes, I’m that person) • Find obscure tyres for a…
While prepping for my Everest Base Camp and Lobuche Peak adventure, I went on a long, hilly walk by the river, audiobook in ears — Jim Rohn’s entire audio library. It's so good! And it reminded me of a simple but powerful project I did over the long weekend: repainting…
This episode is for anyone who's ever thought: “Am I repeating myself too much?” “Should I change my message to keep things interesting?” “Does anyone even care?” Well… yes, no, and absolutely. In this replay, I’m chatting with Jeffrey Shaw (https://www.jeffreyshaw.com/) —author of The Self-Employed Life, host of a brilliant…
This episode is a plot twist in real time. A few weeks ago, I mentioned I’d be trekking to Everest Base Camp and climbing Lobuche East Peak in November. It’s a terrifying and exciting move—and it all came about thanks to the guest on today’s show: Matthew Stewart. (https://au.linkedin.com/in/drmatthewstewart) Matt…
A few episodes ago I riffed on Inbox Zero—and joked that I bet my friend Sarah Stoddart (https://au.linkedin.com/in/sarah-stoddart-23b92240) follows it. Turns out, she definitely does. She voice-noted me her strategy after hearing the episode, and honestly, her approach is so clear, simple, and totally doable that I had to share…
This episode is a total curveball. A complete pivot from anything I had on my 2025 vision board. I’m not climbing to the top of Mount Everest, but I am heading to Everest Base Camp... and beyond. I’ve just said yes (terrified, excited, slightly in denial) to climbing Lobuche Peak…
Today’s riff is inspired by a lesson I learned back when I was a one-woman marketing department at a remote TAFE in northwest Australia. We had this boring-sounding course on email management that no one signed up for—until we renamed it: Email Hell to Email Heaven. Boom. It sold out…
In today’s episode, I’m sharing my thoughts on Million Dollar Weekend (https://noahkagan.com/mdwbook/) by Noah Kagan. I'm about three-quarters through it, but I couldn’t wait to talk about it. It’s that good. You’ll hear why I’ve highlighted more passages than I’ve left untouched in this book (a rare feat), and why…
This episode isn’t just about running — it’s about mindset. I laced up, hit play on a 60-minute guided run from the Nike Run Club app, and suddenly found myself running (well, metaphorically) alongside Eliud Kipchoge — two-time Olympic marathon champion, former world record holder, and one of the greatest…
Today we're joined by Anamaria Dorgo (https://www.linkedin.com/in/anamariadorgo/?originalSubdomain=nl) , a powerhouse community builder, facilitator, and L&D mentor who brings fresh energy and honesty to the space. We chat about the awkward but freeing shift from corporate trainer to facilitator (aka: from control freak to co-creator), how to stop obsessing over “engagement”…
Today’s Weekend Rewind takes you straight into the latest Talk the Walk livestream I hosted with consulting legend, Alan Weiss. (https://alanweiss.com/) We riffed on pricing psychology, why people stay stuck undercharging, and how overdelivering isn’t noble—it’s often self-sabotage. Here’s what we covered: • Why your pricing probably reflects your self-esteem…
