  1. Mid-Season Reflection

    Mid-Season Reflection

    In this special mid-season reflection of In Transit, we pause to look back at the journey so far. From identity and becoming, to the quiet power of mentorship and sponsorship, the first five episodes have traced the threads that shape who we are becoming in our work and in ourselves. This conversation connects the dots between where we started and where we are now, reflecting on the themes, lessons, and questions that have stayed with us. What has shifted? What has resonated? What are we still carrying forward? This episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and recognise that growth is not always loud or linear. Sometimes the most important movement happens in the pause. As we prepare to step into the next chapter of the season, this reflection reminds us that becoming is ongoing, layered, and deeply relational. Conversations for the journey to work and self.

  2. The Power of Mentorship and Sponsorship

    The Power of Mentorship and Sponsorship

    In this episode of In Transit, we reflect on mentorship and sponsorship as quiet but powerful forces that shape our lives, careers, and sense of belonging. This conversation explores the difference between guidance and advocacy, the role of mentorship at key decision points, and how informal support systems often influence our journeys more than we realise. It also reflects on podcasts and conversations as forms of informal mentorship, and the importance of paying it forward. Episode 5 is a reminder that growth is rarely a solo journey — and that becoming happens through relationship, generosity, and shared wisdom. Conversations for the journey to work and self.

  3. Identity, Becoming, and the Work of Time

    Identity, Becoming, and the Work of Time

    In this episode of In Transit, I reflect on identity not as something fixed, but as something shaped slowly over time. From early timelines and academic milestones to research conducted during moments of change and crisis, this conversation explores how learning, work, and lived context quietly shape who we become. It is a reflection on timelines that guide us and sometimes constrain us, on growth that feels slow but is deeply formative, and on the unseen work that time does in our lives. This episode invites you to be gentle with where you are, to loosen the grip on rigid expectations, and to recognise that becoming is not delayed just because it takes time. Conversations for the journey to work and self.

  4. Purpose, Significance, and the Quiet Work of Impact

    Purpose, Significance, and the Quiet Work of Impact

    Purpose is often framed as something we need to find, define, or arrive at. But what if purpose is less about what we do, and more about what happens to people when we do what we do? In this episode of In Transit, I reflect on purpose, significance, and impact through lived experience. From my first role as a computer skills teacher to an unexpected digital transformation moment, this conversation explores how meaningful work often begins quietly, long before it is named or recognised. Grounded in the idea that impact is not always visible or immediate, this episode invites you to reconsider where purpose might already be showing up in your work, your relationships, and the systems you touch. This is a conversation about attention, care, and the quiet work that shapes who we are becoming.

    Digital Equity Is Not a Side Conversation

    At the beginning of the year, new systems, platforms, and processes often become more visible. For students, it’s orientation week. For staff, it’s logging in again, learning what has changed, and finding your footing. In this episode of In Transit, we explore digital equity as a lived, human experience rather than a technical one. Through everyday moments, from navigating a banking app to observing a pharmacy ticketing system, this conversation reflects on confidence, fear, language, dignity, and care. Digital equity is not only about access to technology. It’s about whether people feel supported, capable, and included when systems are introduced. This episode invites you to slow down, notice how systems shape experience, and reflect on what equity looks like in practice at work, in education, and in everyday life.

  6. Connecting the Dots: A Non-Linear Career Journey

    12 JAN

    Connecting the Dots: A Non-Linear Career Journey

    In this episode, we kick off In Transit with a personal story about non-linear career paths. The journey to work and self isn’t always straightforward, and clarity often comes in hindsight. Join me as I reflect on my own career journey — full of detours, discomfort, and lessons that only make sense now. This conversation is not about success stories or formulas, but about embracing uncertainty, trusting the process, and realising that purpose reveals itself through reflection. No matter where you are in your career or personal growth, this episode will speak to those quiet moments when you feel like you’re figuring it out as you go. Whether you’re just starting out or in the middle of a career shift, this episode will remind you that it’s okay not to have everything figured out yet. Tune in to the first episode and start your journey with me.
