  1. The most important career advice I can offer you right now.

    The most important career advice I can offer you right now.

    Express interest in serve here Dearest you. There's a low-grade hum of anxiety moving through a lot of us right now and it doesn't matter whether you work for yourself or someone else. We know something has fundamentally shifted in how work works. We just haven't had the language for it yet. In this episode I name what's actually happening — the emerging agentic workforce — and more importantly, what this moment in time is asking of us. I introduce three ideas that invite you to evolve how you see your professional self: Evolving from a producer of value to a composer of valueEvolving from a holder of a title to a keeper of a unique and deeply human unit of value  Thinking and acting like an entrepreneur  This episode is a reorientation of the way we think about our contribution in a professional setting. It's also a gentle but urgent act of self-direction that can begin today. What I unpack in this episode: Why the traditional career path is becoming less stable and what's replacing itThe fundamental shift from producer to composer of valueWhy an entrepreneurial mindset is no longer just for foundersWhat AI will never be able to do and why that's where our professional futures liveWhy starting or sustaining a human-centred service business may be one of the safest professional moves you can make right nowQuestions to start exploring your own answers to I am opening the doors to serve — a practice room for regenerative entrepreneurship and purpose-driven service — in early May.

  2. Want to cultivate personal taste? Consider starting a seasonal curriculum.

    Want to cultivate personal taste? Consider starting a seasonal curriculum.

    Make a copy of my Season Curriculum Notion template hereSubscribe to my Substack here Dearest you. There is a loud conversation happening online right now about personal taste. Who has it. Who doesn't. How to get it and how we lose it. And somewhere in that conversation, taste cultivation got framed as something friction-full and — for a lot of women — another thing on a list that's already too long. In this episode I pull us out of that debate and move us into the how to develop personal taste. Because here's the reframe: You're not without taste. You never were. What's more likely is that the algorithm has been programming your taste, deciding what you wear, what you think and what you buy. And your taste — your real taste — is sitting waiting underneath. To help you make contact with it, I'm inviting you to pick up the really nourishing practice of designing your own seasonal curriculum — a romantic and creative personal program that acts as an alternative to the scroll.

  3. Want to get off your phone? You don’t have a willpower problem, you have a values deficit.

    FEB 28

    Want to get off your phone? You don’t have a willpower problem, you have a values deficit.

    Dearest you. You know what you value. Or at least, you think you do. Maybe you'd say something like family. Creativity. Freedom. But your actual life — the phone you can’t put down and the yes you keep giving when you really mean no — is telling a different story. So what's going wrong? In this episode, I dig into the gap between our stated values and lived experience and why standard values exercises aren't working anymore. I offer a life-led values excavation approach to try instead, one that starts with inspecting the data your actual life is already giving you.  I also talk about what it means to know your unique transmission as a creator and communicator, why I hope you’ll consider watching the podcast on YouTube, how I’m collaborating with AI as an inquiry partner and why this season of Get Offline is about one message, one community and shipping more long-form content for us to connect around.  Alison xo  go deeper.

  4. Gen Z don’t consume culture, they compose it.

    Gen Z don’t consume culture, they compose it.

    Dearest you. Kriti Gupta calls herself an Internet Anthropologist — a translator of the signals young people are sending about who they are, what they value and what it’s like to be them. In this honest conversation, we explore how Gen Z and Alpha are reclaiming their time, presence and self expression in an era defined by algorithms and increasingly, artificial intelligence. Kriti helps us understand the subcultures and online worlds shaping identity, power and belonging for the next generation and what that means for brands, creators and leaders who want to connect meaningfully. Kriti also opens up about her lived experience as a brown woman and creative trying to belong in rooms that value her ideas but not the face presenting them. Her reflections on reclamation, identity and creating her own tables are deeply moving. Alison xo go deeper.

  5. Alex Taylor on what founders aren't saying out loud.

    Alex Taylor on what founders aren't saying out loud.

    Dearest you. This conversation with my friend, peer and fellow world-builder, Alex Taylor, has been 10 years in the making. We first met in our Who What Wear days — two young leaders shaping the same brand world from opposite sides of the world. A decade later, Alex is the co-founder of Perelel Health, one of the most politically influential women’s health companies in the US with advocacy reaching all the way to the White House.  This episode explores the parts of the founder journey that aren’t spoken about enough. The quiet questioning, the real costs, the faith required before investors and customers believe in what you're building. Together we explore: How a brand earns the right to advocateBuilding community from scratchThe tension between vision and viabilityHolding the mission before the market believes in youNavigating 100+ investor “no’s” while staying devoted to the workFeminine power, relational power and community power in leadershipHow our seasons as women shape the way we leadWhy founders need boundaries, privacy and an inner life of their ownThe evolution of digital intimacy and brand world-building today This is a conversation for founders, creators and builders who are quietly carrying the weight of their vision and looking for a reminder that they’re not alone. It’s also an invitation to rethink what modern leadership can be when it’s grounded in truth and generosity. Alison xo go deeper.

  6. From secret writer dream to published author.

    11/22/2025

    From secret writer dream to published author.

    Dearest you. Are you sitting with a desire to become something or someone entirely new? To evolve your professional or personal expression in the most unlikely, bold way? Maybe, like my guest Ruby Jean Cottle, you want to become a published author. Or maybe you’re an accountant who wants to become an artist. Or a leader who longs to be led again. I hope this episode inspires you to take intentional action in the direction of who and what Nature is wanting you to become. I hope it affirms the quiet knowing that you’re ready to leap into the life you’ve been longing for. Ruby and I trace her journey from multi-hyphenate creative and mother of two navigating “work” while living with endometriosis, to becoming a published author of Black River — a young adult fantasy novel she wrote before she ever had an agent or a book deal. This is a conversation for anyone holding a creative dream inside them, wondering if they’ll ever feel ready. Alison xo go deeper.

    Building a career or business in alignment with our design.

    Dearest you. If you’re an OG Offline Angel, you'll remember my first conversation about Human Design back in 2019 (listen here). Six years on and I'm feeling pulled back into this intricate knowledge system, this time through the lens of career and business building. I'm thrilled to be joined by Human Design expert and portfolio career strategist, Julie Fedele, for an honest conversation about learning to trust and interpret the energetic signals already alive in our bodies — the ones we so often ignore.

  8. Marianne Williamson on becoming the condition for the world we're longing for.

    Marianne Williamson on becoming the condition for the world we're longing for.

    Dearest you. What does it mean to become the condition for the world so many of us are longing for? In this honest conversation, teacher, author, activist and US presidential candidate, Marianne Williamson, invites us to stop waiting for change and instead begin to live as progressive agents of love and right action in the here and now. Your personal awakening is what will fuel system and political change. We also explore how activism can be rooted in compassion rather than contempt and how as female leaders, we can soften without surrendering our strength. She speaks candidly about the lessons, heartbreaks and growth that emerged from her presidential campaign which I'm really grateful for, offering rare insight into the courage and forgiveness that has been required. Marianne is bringing her talk Inner Light, Outer Change to Australian in February. Get your ticket here. Alison xo go deeper.
