Poppy Nichaloff on boundaries, burnout, and building Generation Rise with her husband

Poppy Nichaloff built an online audience before she had kids. Now she's raising two young children and running a business alongside her husband that reaches a lot further than their own feed. That husband is Jacob Nichaloff, known as J-MILLA, a Mak Mak Marranunggu hip hop artist from Darwin and winner of the 2021 Archie Roach Foundation Award. Together they founded Generation Rise, bringing social media literacy and mental health workshops into remote First Nations communities across the country, work they've been doing for eight years. In this episode of You're In Charge, Sav Perera talks with Poppy about the boundaries she's drawn around sharing her own kids online, despite building her entire career on sharing her life. She's candid about what it actually takes to run a business with your husband: he owns the creative side, she owns the business side, and neither one crosses into the other's lane. Poppy also talks about burnout, the five-week trip through 13 communities from Darwin to Broome that left them both exhausted, and the moment she realised motherhood couldn't be the only title she holds. Her rule is simple: she controls the babies, not the other way around. If you've ever tried to build something alongside your partner, or wondered what it looks like to use a platform for more than yourself, this one is worth your time. Recorded on Kaurna Land. You're In Charge is brought to you by ThincHer, an initiative of ThincLab at Adelaide University.

Leading Australia's Biggest University Merger | Nicola Phillips on People, Power & Self-Doubt

What does it really take to lead at the very highest levels - and do you ever stop questioning whether you're good enough? In this episode, Sav sits down with Professor Nicola Phillips, Vice-Chancellor and President of Adelaide University - one of Australia's newest and most ambitious universities, formed by the merger of the University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia. With 30 years of experience across the UK and Australia, Nicola brings a rare mix of academic rigour and hard-won leadership experience to one of the most significant roles in Australian higher education. Nicola and Sav go deep on the questions that matter most to women in leadership: the non-linear path to the top, the impostor feelings that persist even at Vice-Chancellor level, how to make clear decisions when the buck truly stops with you, and why the human element of leadership isn't a soft skill - it's the whole game. They also talk about what it's like to lead an institution of tens of thousands of people through a once-in-a-generation transformation, and what the future of Adelaide University looks like from the inside. If you've been waiting for someone at the very top to admit that self-doubt doesn't disappear with seniority - this is that conversation. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Taryn Brumfitt on doubt, self-compassion, and building a global movement

Taryn Brumfitt posted one photograph and it travelled around the world. What followed was 7,000 messages from strangers, a book, a Kickstarter campaign nobody thought would work, and a documentary that beat Guardians of the Galaxy on opening night at the German box office.In this episode of You're In Charge, Sav Perera sits down with the 2023 Australian of the Year, founder of the Body Image Movement and co-founder of The Embrace Collective, to talk about what actually got built and what it cost.Taryn is candid about the early years: selling a car, working a second job, and painting a Steve Martin line onto her office wall because the rejections kept coming. She talks about why removing ego mattered more than being the smartest person in the room, why self-compassion beats self-criticism as a performance strategy, and why she is now taking body image into boardrooms through Embrace@Work.There is also a conversation about doubt that Sav names as her own biggest takeaway. Taryn does not try to get rid of hers. She gives it a rug, a thermos of tea, and a seat in the boot of the car.If you are early in building something, or deep in it and quietly hard on yourself, this one is worth your time.Recorded on Kaurna Land.
