Gemma Rielly is an up & coming Australian race horse trainer who possesses maturity beyond her years. She's loved horses since riding her friend's pony at the age of 14. But having left home at 15 years old, the path to fulfilling her dream of training horses has been far from easy.
Hear Gemma's inspiring career story in this conversation with Rob Cugno.

In this special episode of the Love What You Do podcast, the roles are reversed when Rob is interviewed as a guest by Mitzhay Pomenta as her guest on radio 3WBC 94.1FM.
Rob gives plenty of useful career tips on networking, LinkedIn, job interviews, resumes, cover letters and how to land your next role.

My guest today is Peter Lochert, Secretary, Department of Parliamentary Services at the Parliament of Victoria.
Peter was born in Chile and migrated to Australia with his family in 1971 when he was 18 years old, and didn't speak a word of English.
From a comfortable existence to mucking out the chicken coop then climbing the ranks of senior leadership, Peter's story is common among Australia's migrants. In Peter's own words, never be defined by your boundaries.

I'd delighted to be joined in this episode of the Love What You Do podcast by Managing Director of RiskCom and Chairman, Cricket Australia, Earl Eddings.
In his own words, Earl has lead a 'portfolio career'.  But that's just Earl being humble.  His career kicked-off as a consultant in work health & safety and through passion & persistence, he quickly rose the ranks to take senior leadership roles in large organisations.
Despite his success, Earl has stayed grounded and connected to his purpose throughout his career via his volunteer work.
This is one of my favourite conversations of 2020 and I hope you draw inspiration from Earl's wisdom.

Vas Iannella has built a successful career in the banking & finance industry. In this podcast, she talks to Rob Cugno about her career journey.  They discuss:
Why it's important to be open to new opportunities Having the courage to try something new Finding the balance between career & family The importance of transferable skills Why you must not let your CV be an internal document only Why, as a manager, you can't be successful if your people aren't successful

Looking after your health and well-being is a priority if you want to have a long and successful career.  But its something we all struggle with at times, especially this year as we deal with COVID-19 and its many health, career, financial & lifestyle side-effects.
That is why I invited mental health social worker, Annette Magro, to join us again on the Love What You Do podcast to share her insights on how to look after yourself during COVID-19. Annette and I discuss:

Is the Karen syndrome a side-effect of COVID? How to make sense of your feelings Some practical strategies on how to stay resilient and get through the tough times Annette shares insights from her professional and personal life that I know you'll find powerful and inspiring.
