    Sacrifice Stories - What Happens When We Truly Listen

    What happens when you slow down enough to truly listen? In this episode of Connect with Confidence, I’m joined by photographer William Debois - someone who quite literally travelled thousands of kilometers to meet strangers and ask just two simple questions: - What does sacrifice mean to you? - What sacrifice have you made? What emerged is a beautiful collection of portraits and stories - powerful, unexpected and inspiring. William shares the heart behind his Sacrifice Stories project - from travelling with a medium format film camera (limited to just 12 shots per roll) to developing film in makeshift darkrooms across Australia. But more than the photography, this is a conversation about presence, listening and connection. We explore: - Why listening matters more than talking - The beauty of “ordinary” lives and unseen sacrifice - How constraints (like 12 frames) can deepen creativity - What it means to meet people without assumptions - The surprising impact of being truly heard This conversation is a reminder that meaningful connection doesn’t require perfect conditions… just curiosity and willingness.

    Saying Yes Before You Feel Ready - Rachel Hartigan on Amelia Earhart, Courage and Curiosity

    In this fascinating and beautifully human conversation, Kerrie speaks with journalist and author Rachel Hartigan, whose book Lost: Amelia Earhart’s Three Mysterious Deaths and One Extraordinary Life explores not only the mystery of Amelia Earhart’s disappearance, but also the people who have spent decades searching for answers. Rachel shares how a chance hallway conversation at National Geographic led her to join expeditions to Nikumaroro, a remote Pacific island connected to one of the enduring theories about Earhart’s disappearance. From ocean-going ships and turbulent reef crossings to research vessels, bone-detecting dogs, and the eerie vastness of the Pacific, Rachel reflects on courage, curiosity and the humbling feeling of being far beyond the familiar. Together, Kerrie and Rachel explore the line between courage and risk, the importance of remembering the real people behind public stories, the changing world of journalism, the grounding power of walking the dog, and the everyday communities that form when we take time to connect. This episode is a reminder that courage may look like an expedition across the Pacific — or simply saying hello at the dog park. Loved this episode?

    Building a Business You Actually Enjoy

    What if building a successful business didn’t have to mean carrying everything? What if it could actually feel… enjoyable? In this thoughtful and spacious conversation, I sit down with Ellen Bathgate - someone I’ve had the privilege of journeying alongside for nearly two decades. We begin with a simple but powerful reflection from Ellen’s younger years, writing letters to her future self and what it reveals about how much we change over time… and how freeing that can be. From there, we explore what it really looks like to build a business you enjoy: ​How Ellen shifted from “baby-faced assassin” to a deeply relational leader​The unexpected lessons of owning a beauty salon in her early 20s​Why systems aren’t about structure for the sake of it - but about creating freedom​How she and her husband now share leadership in a way that plays to their strengths​The practical shift from doing everything… to automating, delegating and letting go​And how AI can support your work - without replacing your thinkingWe also gently unpack something deeper, that enjoying your business isn’t just about what you do… It’s about how aligned you feel with it. Because knowing how to do something isn’t the same as being fully on board with it. This is a conversation about designing your work in a way that fits you. About letting go of what no longer serves and giving yourself space to think… so you can build something that truly feels like your own. Loved this episode?

    A Little More Social with Nicholas Epley

    What if the conversations you’re avoiding are the very ones that could change your day, your life, or someone else’s? In this warm and insightful conversation, Kerrie sits down with behavioural scientist Nicholas Epley to explore the surprising science behind talking to strangers and why we so often get it wrong. From a quiet train carriage in Chicago to life-changing family decisions, Nick shares how his research and his own lived experience reveals a powerful truth: we consistently underestimate how meaningful connection can be. Together, they explore: ​Why we hesitate to reach out (and what’s really happening in our brains)​The concept of data-driven courage​How small moments of connection create unexpected happiness, health and belonging​The surprising gap between what we expect and what actually happens​How habits - not just knowledge - transform our relationships You’ll also hear deeply personal stories - including the journey that led Nick and his family to adopt their daughter Lindsay and how connection shaped that decision in profound ways. This episode is both practical and deeply moving; a reminder that even the smallest act of reaching out can ripple further than we ever imagine Loved this episode?

    Talking to Strangers… or Meeting Angels?

    There are conversations that stay with you, not because they’re perfectly planned, but because they unfold with honesty, depth, and unexpected wisdom. In this episode of Connect with Confidence, I reconnect with Mathew Samuel - a global business leader I met in India recently, over a simple cup of tea in Dr Ram’s office at GRD College. What followed was a conversation about life, business, intuition, and the surprising power of talking to strangers. Mathew shares how his journey has been shaped not by rigid plans, but by openness to people, opportunity, and moments that didn’t make sense at the time but later changed everything. From building brands across 40 countries to learning from failure, from navigating loss to recognising life’s defining moments; this is a conversation about staying grounded while thinking globally. We explore: Why “strangers” may actually be the people who shape your life mostHow setbacks are really moments of unlearningThe discipline behind good decision-makingWhy simplicity is harder and more powerful, than complexityWhat it means to be ready when opportunity appearsThis is a spacious, reflective conversation that that invites you to pause, zoom out, and consider: Who are the “angels” that have appeared in your life?

    Once Upon a Stranger - Gillian Sandstrom on how Small Talk is a big deal

    What if the conversations we often dismiss as “small talk” are actually helping us build a richer, more connected life? In this delightful and deeply affirming episode of Connect with Confidence, Kerrie is joined by Professor Gillian Sandstrom, researcher, speaker and author of Once Upon a Stranger. Together they explore the science and the story behind everyday interactions – from chatting on trains and in cafés to sharing a smile with someone on a hard day. Gillian shares how her journey began – from watching her dad talk to everyone, to finding unexpected comfort in being recognised by the “hot dog lady” on campus, to one brave cupcake-inspired conversation that opened a whole new world. Along the way, Kerrie and Gillian reflect on introversion, belonging, networking, empathy, uncertainty and the ripple effect of simple human connection. They also unpack Gillian’s practical QUICK framework for starting conversations: Questions In Common Kindness This is a warm, thoughtful conversation for anyone who longs for more ease, confidence and meaning in their interactions – whether in daily life, travel, work or community. In this episode, you’ll hear about: • Why “small talk” isn’t small at all • How weak ties and everyday interactions help us feel we belong • The difference between introversion and shyness • Why talking to strangers can actually suit introverts • How authenticity changes networking • The cumulative effect of brief, ordinary conversations • How to start conversations using Gillian’s QUICK framework • Why a smile, a question or a kind comment can matter more than we realise Loved this episode?

    Outback Connecting again

    Bonus Episode | Outback Radio 2WEB Conversation This episode is a little different. Recently, I joined Rod and Heather on Outback Radio 2WEB to talk about our upcoming Wisdom and Wellbeing Women’s Retreat at Lower Lila, just outside Bourke in far west NSW. What unfolded was a genuine, unscripted conversation about something much bigger than a retreat… ✨ saying yes to unexpected opportunities ✨ stepping out of your comfort zone ✨ the growth that comes from trying something new ✨ and the power of reconnecting - with yourself and with others You’ll hear stories of spontaneous decisions that turned into life-shaping experiences… reflections on why we often hesitate… and gentle encouragement to trust those small inner nudges. We also talk about the beauty of the outback - especially after recent rains - and the unique experience of gathering, slowing down, and connecting in a place that invites clarity and perspective. Whether or not a retreat is on your radar right now, this conversation is an invitation to pause… reflect… and consider: Where might a simple “yes” open something meaningful for you?
