Sally Haydon has managed 11,000 people across 3 countries. She has had a global career in Australia, the UK, India, the Philippines and Dubai, all driven by a passion for customers and leading people.
Sally shares with absolute honesty that for much of her career there was Work Sally and Home Sally. ‘Work Sally’ pretended to like golf and never really felt it was her place to speak up.
Together we discuss how it felt to find her voice, to show up as herself and the deep inner work she continues to do to find the confidence in herself.
I just think this conversation is fabulous. Sally is a wonderful, self-aware leader who is unapologetically ambitious and driven by Learning.

#34 Gabrielle Dolan - Are you feeding your self-doubt oxygen?
Friday Dec 31, 2021
Friday Dec 31, 2021
Gabrielle is a global expert in business storytelling and communication, an amazing keynote speaker and best-selling author of seven books. She also failed English.
Together we discuss the critical decision she made when faced with the disappointment of missing out on her dream role, the push a brilliant leader who listens can provide, and how an email from the Obama Foundation was so amazing that she thought it was a hoax.
Gabrielle is unapologetically herself and helps leaders uncover the added benefit storytelling can have on the teams around them.

#33 Bobbi Mahlab - Build your Community. That is where the opportunities are
Friday Dec 24, 2021
Friday Dec 24, 2021
Do you need confidence or courage? Join Bobbi and I as we cover an event that triggered a significant loss of confidence in her career. Bobbi Mahlab is a wonderful entrepreneur, social change agent, board member and philanthropist. She is the Chair & Founder of Mahlab Media and Co-Founder of Mentor Walks, a fast growing national mentoring program in which many of Australia’s most senior women participate.
Bobbi is doing the best work of her life in her 50’s and she explains why networking is so critical and that you don’t need to be an extrovert to do it well. We also explore why sometimes large corporations can’t adapt quickly enough to meet the changing needs of women throughout their lives.

#32 David Thodey #human - Creating a culture of inclusiveness
Friday Dec 17, 2021
Friday Dec 17, 2021
David is one of Australia’s most respected and influential leaders. He was part of the original 8 male CEOs asked to be on the then titled Male Champions of Change, established by our longest serving Sex Discrimimation Commissioner, Elizabeth Broderick (2007 - 2015).
David & I discuss the main reason some leaders never reach their full potential, what the fundamentals of great leadership are and how you build a culture of inclusivity that values and celebrates the whole person coming to work. There is a real theme of courage and stepping out and not expecting things to be perfect. David also shares the times he needed to seek help and not do it alone. We also discuss why he felt he should step down from the Male Champions of Change.

#31 Juggy Sihota - Be right or be successful
Friday Dec 10, 2021
Friday Dec 10, 2021
I could not have enjoyed this conversation more. Juggy (Vice President of Consumer Health for TELUS, one of Canada’s largest Telecommunications companies) has an incredible passion in all that she does. She is thoughtful, deliberate, reflective and is on a lifelong growth journey. Oh and she is hiring. Listen to her specific advice for anyone over 50.
Together we discuss the gift of pausing and reflecting, why gender mattered more as she moved into senior roles and how to approach negotiating for your salary. Juggy talks about making it a priority to sit with yourself, to audit your most valuable asset and the questions you should reflect on.

#30 Kate Mason - Pop your Brave plates on. We are all learning.
Tuesday Dec 07, 2021
Tuesday Dec 07, 2021
Dr. Kate Mason is a storytelling debate champion who elevates womens’ communication through her coaching program Amplify, so they can lead with impact and authority.
Together we uncover how she created the perfect business (Hdgehog and Fox - USA, Asia, Australia) that combines what she loves with something she is good at and can be useful in! Kate shares tips on taking up the space and time you deserve, becoming aware of behaviours that minimise your impact and negotiating for a payrise. We cover “gender deafness” and ways to ensure your voice is one that is listened to.
What I loved the most was how Kate deals with her inner voice when it flags doubt or concern. Life changer.

#29 Professor Gemma Figtree - Fighting to solve our number one health issue
Friday Nov 26, 2021
Friday Nov 26, 2021
Gemma has never understood the culture of not trying hard!
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for women and for 20% of patients, there are no known risk factors. Combining a career as one of the 4.5% of Interventional Cardiologists who are female, with a rewarding research career, Gemma says yes a lot and is driven to answer a question her patients regularly ask, “Why me?”.
Together we discuss the power of role models in medicine, two personal life experiences that gave Gemma the confidence to step off the direct path and follow her passions. We also discuss the influence of a wonderful teacher!

#28 Karen Beattie - Stretch, Doubt, Stretch, Doubt
Friday Nov 19, 2021
Friday Nov 19, 2021
In this episode I interview Karen Beattie. Karen has had a truly global life. Born in Trinidad and living in Libya, Nigeria, Jakarta, Abu Dhabi and Dubai all before arriving in Perth as a 13 year old.
Karen started The Growth Faculty from a small Sydney office in 2003 and set about achieving her ambitious mission to give business leaders access to the world’s best strategic thinkers and high achievers.
Together we discuss how 10 years of persistence finally paid off, the power of "Commit and GO" and the recurring dream/nightmare that kept her awake for 6 months. Karen has provided access to some of the world’s best thought leaders including Jim Collins, Simon Sinek, Brené Brown, Malala Yousafzai and President Barack Obama. We discuss how Karen felt as a leader during COVID and how anytime you stretch your comfort zone there is a period of self-doubt.

#27 Prof. Laura Kray - The evidence of gender bias is real
Friday Nov 12, 2021
Friday Nov 12, 2021
Professor Laura Kray is a scientist and her research validates the lived experience of so many women. Backlash in asking for a raise, the B Word, pushover, difficult, never able to find the acceptable middle ground... and Laura’s latest research adds a new dimension to the gender pay gap!
I promise this interview will make you think. You might find yourself observing and asking questions like; Am I getting my fair share of the conversation? And realising for the first time that many of the experiences in your career are not personal - there is a much broader context.
A great conversation with someone who never planned to study gender.

#26 Natalie Walker - Are you guided by your North Star?
Friday Nov 05, 2021
Friday Nov 05, 2021
Natalie Walker is a Kuku Yalanji woman who deflects every question I asked about her success.
Natalie is guided by her North Star and is justifiably proud of her work and the role she has played in creating a better world for disadvantaged Australians. Together we discuss the deep knowledge and wisdom grandparents share, growing up knowing that the world isn’t equal and fair, the influence of Halifax FP on her career goals and the sad moment that Natalie realised fixing the world one person at a time wasn’t going to be enough to influence change on a deeper and broader scale.
Natalie rarely says yes to interviews. I am so grateful that she did.
