    Navigating International Development: One Woman's Journey from the Midwest to Global Impact with Laura Jagla (USA)

    Send us a text What happens when a chance encounter shifts your entire life path? For Laura Jagla, a brief handshake with then-candidate Barack Obama during her college years sparked a journey from organic chemistry studies to a fulfilling career in international development. Laura Jagla's story begins in South Bend, Indiana, where her mother's dedication as a teacher and early friendships with international students ignited her curiosity about global communities. Though she initially pursued science, a pivotal moment came when she sprinted across campus—backpack loaded with textbooks—to meet Obama at a university event. This brief interaction planted the seed for her future in public service. Her transition wasn't immediate or straightforward. With scholarships funding her year abroad in France (despite arriving to find her documents and money stolen), Laura embraced the challenges of immersing herself in a new culture and language. This resilience served her well as she later secured a Boren Fellowship in Mozambique, which provided preferential hiring status for federal positions and eventually led to her selection by USAID. Throughout her decade with USAID, Laura witnessed the transformative power of international development firsthand. She shares moving stories of colleagues whose work lifted entire families from poverty and innovative partnerships between American and international universities that benefited communities across continents. These person-to-person connections demonstrate how development work creates meaningful, lasting change beyond policy documents. For aspiring professionals, Laura Jagla offers candid insights about navigating workplace challenges, from building consensus among passionate colleagues to adapting to Washington DC's fast-paced environment. Despite acknowledging current difficulties in entering international development, she remains optimistic about the future and the innovative approaches the next generation will bring to global challenges. Curious about how unexpected moments might shape your own career path? Listen now to discover how public service can create ripple effects of positive change around the world.

    How A Simple App Turns Small Acts Into Big Impact with Daniel Varga (Hungary & Luxembourg)

    Send us a text What if your feed rewarded kindness instead of conflict? We sit down with founder Daniel Varga to unpack Better.ette, a minimalist app that turns everyday generosity into a repeatable habit. Born from a career pivot and a personal audit of what truly brings joy, Daniel’s idea blends neuroscience, AI and thoughtful design to make doing good feel simple, social and sustainable. We walk through the core loop: log a small action, get an effort-and-impact score, receive a nudge of positive feedback and watch a star appear in a shared night sky. That constellation becomes a living map of kindness across the world, visible for a few days to encourage fresh acts. Drawing on self-determination theory, Better.ette avoids prescriptive to-do lists and instead showcases what others are doing, letting users choose how they want to contribute. It’s autonomy first, with recognition that builds competence and community without the pressure of performative virtue. Safety and wellbeing shape every choice. There are no comments, only hearts, to reduce bullying and bragging risks—crucial for schools, families and workplaces. The app limits scrolling and adds a short mood check to suggest a small act when you feel low, acknowledging the research that prosocial behaviour can lift mood without positioning itself as a mental health tool. For Gen Z and young professionals who crave impact alongside income, Better.ette introduces missions like “clean earth” or “call five childhood friends,” making service cool, concrete and achievable with friends or colleagues. We also talk about the team’s path: building Better.ette Global in Luxembourg, learning inside a social business incubator, gathering feedback through a public waitlist and A/B testing, and showcasing at Web Summit with plans for Nexus, ChangeNOW and VivaTech. Daniel’s gratitude for the designers, coders and scientists behind the demo reminds us that the product’s subject—kindness—also powers its creation. If you’re curious about behaviour change, humane tech and practical ways to spread good, this conversation will give you tools and inspiration. Join the waitlist at bettered.com, share the episode with someone kind, and tell us: what small act will you log today?

    Rewire Your Student Mindset: From Self-Doubt to Smart Study with Sharon Olaniyi (Nigeria)

    Send us a text Doubt can start long before an exam, and that quiet defeat often decides the result. We sat down with Lady Sharon Holani—a Nigerian law student, tutor and mentor—to unpack the real drivers of academic focus: belief, aligned environments, and systems that make deep work possible. What began as a conversation about affirmations became a blueprint for building a focused identity that shows up on test day and in life. Sharon shares how she moved from “I’m not capable” to consistent results by pairing daily affirmations with action—timed study blocks, active recall for case law, and weekly reviews. She explains why your inputs determine your output: friends who drain you, feeds that normalise failure, and media that stirs anxiety all tax attention. We talk practical boundaries—how to say no without drama, how to distance gently yet firmly, and how to replace noise with books and voices that fuel growth. Mentorship threads it all together. “Follow who know road” is more than a saying; it’s a strategy. Sharon describes the mentors who saved her time and mistakes, and previews her programme for law students on studying smarter, not harder—memorising cases, extracting principles, and building the kind of focus that lasts. Along the way, we break the myth of marathon studying and show why short, deep focus sprints outperform long, distracted sessions. If you’re ready to turn mindset into momentum, curate a healthier environment, and learn the study frameworks that actually stick, this conversation is your starting line.

    How To Build A Trustworthy Personal Brand In A Noisy Digital World with Paige Arnof-Fenn (USA)

    Send us a text Your name should be the answer to a specific problem. That simple shift—from “I do many things” to “I stand for this”—can change how often you are found, trusted, and hired. We sat down with marketing leader Paige Arnof-Fenn to unpack what turns everyday professionals into memorable, referable brands in a noisy digital world. Paige traces her path from Wall Street to Procter & Gamble and Coca‑Cola, to leading marketing at venture‑backed start‑ups and founding Mavens & Moguls. Along the way she distils the essentials: a brand is a promise in the mind of your audience; consistency across platforms builds trust; and fewer messages said more often beat long lists of services. We talk through concrete examples from Starbucks and Apple that show how familiarity reduces friction, then apply those lessons to your LinkedIn bio, your tone in meetings, and even how you show up at the school gate. You’ll learn a simple research exercise to find your one or two strengths, how to audit your search results and clean up digital dirt, and why cross‑platform consistency matters more than posting everywhere. Paige shares a practical roadmap for two paths: starting out with no track record and pivoting mid‑career into a new field. We dig into adding value in public—commenting with tools, translating complex topics, and publishing helpful summaries—while using AI as an editor, not a voice. And if you need proof fast, volunteer for a nonprofit or club to build real case studies that feed your credibility. If you’re ready to stop being a best kept secret and start being the first name people remember, this conversation gives you the steps to focus, show up, and be trusted. Enjoy the episode, then subscribe, share with a friend who’s rebranding, and leave a review with the one thing you’ll commit to doing consistently this month.

    Why Women’s Leadership And Early Climate Education Decide Who Thrives with Amb Ruby Kryticous (Zambia)

    Send us a text A backyard mango tree with only four fruits shouldn’t tell a global story—but it does. Ambassador Ruby Kritikos joins us to connect the dots between extreme heat, shifting winds, and the quiet collapse of everyday nutrition, then widens the lens to storms that level coastlines and budgets. We talk plainly about climate justice: who gets the funds, how fast they arrive, and whether reconstruction restores dignity as well as roads and schools. Ruby brings hard numbers and lived experience from Zambia to COP30 corridors, insisting that pledges must translate into food on the table and safer homes. We dive into why women’s leadership changes outcomes, not just optics. Representation shapes priorities—health systems, housing, anti-corruption—and accelerates policies that protect children, coastal communities, and those living closest to risk. Ruby reframes feminism as collaboration rather than competition, drawing men and boys into the work of building resilient systems. Civil society takes centre stage as the bridge between plans and practice: local groups collect ground truth, elevate youth innovators, and make disaster preparedness tangible, as seen in the Philippines where planning saved lives. Education threads through everything. Start climate learning early with observation and art; scale to data, humidity, and precipitation in later years; move science into gardens so knowledge travels home. Youth projects spark real change—from plastic bricks and bottle-top murals to river clean-ups that protect fishing livelihoods. We also explore indigenous knowledge and carbon balance, the costs of charcoal-driven deforestation, and unexpected innovations like turning sugarcane waste into compostable eco-fabrics. Packaging shifts to plant-based materials show how industry and policy can reduce microplastics without slowing growth. Ruby closes with inclusion at the core: sunscreen as essential health for persons with albinism, feeding programmes for children with hearing impairments, and a reminder that climate risk is a health, education, and equality issue. If we want a future that works, funding must reach the front lines, and leadership must measure success by safety, access, and shared prosperity. If the conversation resonates, follow the show, share this episode with a friend who cares about practical solutions, and leave a review telling us one change you’ll start this week.

    Ending Silence To Protect Children with Dr Matthew McVarish (Scotland)

    Send us a text A single play sparked a family’s disclosure, an arrest, and a mission that now reaches the halls of the Council of Europe. We sit down with Dr Matthew McVarish to unpack how survivor voices can reshape laws, build child‑centred justice, and push governments beyond gestures toward real protection for children. From ending statutes of limitations to establishing survivor councils, Matthew shares a blueprint for practical change grounded in lived experience and rigorous policy work. We explore the Brave Movement’s three global priorities: removing time limits that block prosecutions and leave offenders near children, making the internet safer without sacrificing legitimate privacy, and formalising survivor councils so lawmakers hear from people who have navigated the system. Along the way, we examine the ACE research linking childhood trauma to lifelong health risks and mounting economic costs, showing why prevention and trauma‑informed responses are both ethical and efficient. You’ll also hear how the Barnahus model transforms child protection by bringing police, medical care, social services, and courts under one roof, replacing repeated testimonies with one forensic interview and swift therapeutic support. We discuss the power of language—why “survivor” matters, and why terms like child sexual abuse material clarify who is harmed and who is responsible. We close with concrete steps you can take today: create an open‑door culture at home, ask your school when it last updated its safeguarding policy, and use your voice to press for Barnahus standards and the end of harmful time limits. If this conversation moved you, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review with the action you’ll take this week—what’s your first brave step?

    Turning Job Search Into Career Velocity: How to Communicate a Unique Value Proposition That Gets You Seen and Heard with Gina Riley (USA)

    Send us a text Job boards feel like shouting into the wind, and for many smart, seasoned professionals, that silence is maddening. We sat down with career transition coach and author Gina Riley to unpack why “qualified” rarely wins on its own—and how clarity, research, and real relationships move you to the top of the shortlist. Gina shares the thinking behind her book, Qualified Isn’t Enough, and the nine-step Career Velocity model that helps candidates articulate a unique value proposition and turn interviews into business conversations. Across a fast-paced, practical conversation, we map the journey from rambling bios to crisp narratives that hiring teams can use. You’ll hear how to build your career thread from strengths, values, and motivated skills; why dormant ties are your most overlooked asset; and how to approach outreach with curiosity instead of desperation. We go beyond company webpages into investor letters, competitor analysis, and leadership interviews, then show you how to bring those insights into meetings as testable hypotheses. For new grads, mid-career changers, and executives alike, the message is consistent: unless you get seen, you won’t get heard. We also dive into executive presence—how you look, speak, and act—and the modern mandate to read the room across virtual and in-person settings. Gina Riley introduces her RARE framework: Research, Alignment, Read the room, Evaluate the fit. You’ll learn smart questions to ask peers and leaders, ways to avoid the ATS black hole, and why volunteer leadership can quietly showcase your value at scale. If you’ve been applying widely with little traction, this is your reset: fewer applications, stronger relationships, and a narrative that makes you the obvious hire. Enjoyed the conversation? Follow and rate the show, share this episode with a friend who’s job searching, and leave a review telling us which strategy you’ll try first.

    Bridging Brain and Brand with Shauna Van Mourik (Canada)

    Send us a text What if your marketing felt as genuine as your work—and actually performed better because of it? We sit down with Shauna Van Mourik to unpack how a neuroscience lens, a translator’s ear, and a values-first strategy can turn vague messaging into clear demand and sustainable growth. Shauna bridges the science and the “woo” with uncommon fluency, showing how affirmations rewire neural pathways, why specificity attracts more of the right clients, and how to define success on your terms so your business fits your life, not the other way around. Shauna Van Mourik shares a powerful case study of a psychotherapist who eliminated misaligned corporate gigs, added $40K in eight months, niched into work she loves, and created passive income that supported new family life. We dig into the mechanics: a brand refresh rooted in identity over aesthetics, a visibility plan that prioritised community, and the operational systems that turned a surge of leads into calm delivery. You’ll also hear how a German client went from a trickle to a waitlist by targeting a dream client profile, then shoring up back-end structure to handle demand without burning out. We map ’Shauna Van Mourik's two service lanes—done-for-you execution and a high-touch coaching path—plus her five-phase framework: brand refresh, marketing strategy, community building, conversion that flows without constant launches, and long-term sustainability planning. And we tackle the future: why AI is best treated as a thinking partner that sharpens ideas and returns time to human work like listening, judgment, and care. Expect practical insights on alignment, clarity, and momentum you can maintain. If this conversation helps you see your brand and growth plan with fresh eyes, follow along, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review so more people can find the show.
