    Beyond the demo: Enterprise AI, engineering leadership, and scaling teams with Unai Rodriguez

    In this episode we sit down with Unai Rodriguez, Director of Voice AI at SoundHound AI and an engineering leader with more than 25 years of international technology experience. Unai gives us a candid look at what happens behind the scenes when Voice AI and Agentic AI move into production from infrastructure and telephony costs to reliability, integrations, scalability, and the challenges businesses often overlook. We explore why impressive AI demonstrations can struggle when they reach enterprise environments, what business and engineering leaders should understand before investing in Voice AI, and how the economics of AI change when systems operate at massive scale. We also discuss Unai’s experience growing an international engineering team from 4 to 20, leading across different countries and cultures, transitioning from hands-on engineering into senior leadership, and recovering supposedly unrecoverable systems following a major cyberattack. Beyond technology, Unai shares how founding and captaining Singapore’s Armada Dragon Boat Team shaped his understanding of motivation, teamwork, accountability, and leadership. Whether you’re an AI practitioner, engineering leader, entrepreneur, or simply curious about what it takes to make AI work in the real world, this conversation offers practical insights grounded in real enterprise experience.

    When everything starts colliding: Understanding hormageddon with Jani Rundall

    In this episode Cecilia sits down with Jani Rundall, Life Strategist, Speaker, Author, ADHD Practitioner, Menopause Coach, and founder of Hormageddon™. After more than 30 years in corporate technology sales, Jani experienced a period when the strategies that had worked for decades suddenly stopped working. An unexpected adult ADHD diagnosis, hormonal changes, nervous-system strain, and the accumulated demands of life began interacting in ways she couldn’t explain through a single label. Jani calls this Hormageddon™: the collision of hormones, brain wiring, the nervous system, and life load. Together, we explore why capable people so often blame themselves when something changes, how hormonal shifts can intersect with attention, memory, and emotional regulation, why ADHD can go unrecognised in women until midlife, and why men deserve a more informed conversation about their own hormonal changes. We also talk about relationships, parenting teenagers, workplace performance, leadership, and why organisations should view these issues not only as wellbeing concerns but as potential retention and performance challenges. Jani introduces her practical Personal Operating Map, a tool designed to help people understand what they need, what drains them, their early warning signs, and the conditions in which they do their best work. If you’ve ever wondered why something that used to feel manageable suddenly feels impossible, this conversation offers a different question to ask: What has changed underneath the surface?
