    Ep 61: Redesigning the Rules: Equity, Inclusion & the Future of Work with Olajide Alabi - UPDATED AUDIO

    In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Olajide, Co-founder of SiSU—a people experience agency on a mission to create better, more inclusive workplace cultures. From his beginnings as a part-time TGI Fridays employee to leading culture-shifting work across the hospitality sector and beyond, Olajide brings a deep understanding of what it really means to centre equity, inclusion, and wellbeing at work. We talk about: ✨ Why equity isn’t the same as equality—and why that difference matters ✨ His journey from being gaslit and facing adversity to becoming a leader in culture change ✨ How data, care, and listening can radically improve the employee experience ✨ What it means to protect your light and stand in your truth ✨ Why the hospitality industry is built on diversity—and why it must do better by its people ✨ Advice to anyone starting out or feeling unseen at work Olajide’s insights are honest, energising and full of practical ways we can all do better, wherever we work.

    Ep60: Purpose Isn’t a Unicorn (and You’re Not Behind) with Tamsyn Allington

    In this solo episode, I’m diving into a topic that comes up all the time in coaching sessions and conversations with clients: purpose. We’ve been fed this idea that purpose is some huge, life-altering thing—you either find it or you don’t. But I believe purpose isn’t a unicorn. It’s not rare, mystical, or reserved for a chosen few. And you’re not behind if you haven’t had some lightning bolt moment. I’ll share my take on what it actually means to be purpose-driven, how to find alignment in your life without burning it all down, and why listening to the whispers before they become screams can change everything. If you’ve been questioning what’s next or wondering if you’ve missed your shot, this is the reminder you didn’t know you needed: you’re doing better than you think.
