In this episode of Creating Cadence, host Mich Bondesio interviews Kevin Karaca - a storyteller, behaviour strategist, and mindfulness advocate - about how curiosity, meaning, and story can help us rewrite the rules of work.

Kevin is co-founder of Folc Studio, founder of The House Outside, and creator of The Cult of Curiosity. His work explores how humans and businesses can reconnect with themselves and others to create more intentional, meaningful, and sustainable ways of working.

Together, Mich and Kevin unpack how story, reciprocity, and self-connection shape our work and leadership, and why embracing discomfort, curiosity, and presence are essential tools for positive change.

In episode 88, we cover:

• Why there’s no “work–life divide”
• How story shapes systems, culture, and behaviour
• Why changing the story changes the system
• The role of mindfulness and curiosity in sustainable productivity
• Why vulnerability, meaning, and discomfort matter for growth

Key takeaway:

When we reconnect with curiosity and meaning, we don’t just change our work - we change ourselves, our relationships, and the systems we build together.
