February 25, 2026Brand You: Build a Personal Brand Through Presence & Consistency | Nicole Hatherly & Brendan Wong
Leadership today demands more than expertise — it requires a presence and story that builds trust, credibility, and real influence.
In this Lessons from Leaders conversation (brewed with Nespresso Professional), host Yasmin London sits down with Nicole Hatherly (brand & leadership strategist) and Brendan Wong (LinkedIn Careers Expert & News Editor) to unpack what “personal brand” really means now — and why Nicole argues the phrase is dead, even though the concept matters more than ever.
You’ll learn how to clarify what you want to be known for, create consistent visibility without feeling cringe, and translate your value so others can explain it in one sentence.
In this episode, we cover:
Why “personal brand” needs a rebrand (and what it actually is)
Reputation vs brand — and why consistency is your real brand
Nicole’s True North process: signals → golden thread → making value visible
How to build credibility + connection on LinkedIn (without chasing viral metrics)
The rise of the CEO fluencer and what leaders must do now
What to stop doing on LinkedIn (yes, including “broetry”)

February 20, 2026Lead Without Fear: How to Overcome Insecurity and Inspire Your Team
Insecurity in leadership is more common than we admit — and it quietly erodes trust, culture, and performance. In this honest Cuppa.tv conversation, we sit down with Jaemin Frazer (https://cuppa.pickmybrain.world/profiles/jaemin-frazer) (author, speaker, founder of The Insecurity Project) to unpack what insecurity really is, how it shows up in leaders, and how to move from “prove and defend” energy into calm, secure leadership.
If you manage a team, lead a business, or want to show up with more clarity and confidence, this episode will challenge you in all the right ways.
🎯 In this conversation, you’ll learn:
Why insecurity is the biggest thief of leadership potential
The “prove and defend” pattern (and how to spot it in yourself)
How insecurity destroys trust and creates dysfunction in teams
The difference between strategy-first leadership vs story-first leadership
Jaemin’s 7 essential practices for eliminating insecurity (not just managing it)
How secure leaders handle conflict without making it personal
💡 Key idea: You’re not afraid that you’re “not enough.” You’re afraid of the thought that you’re not enough — and that’s a solvable problem.

February 20, 2026High Achiever, Low Battery: The Hidden Burnout Equation | Chibs Okereke
Ever felt like you’re doing all the right things… but still running on empty?
In this powerful Cuppa.tv conversation, mindfulness and burnout coach Chibs Okereke (https://cuppa.pickmybrain.world/profiles/chibs-okereke) explores the hidden connection between childhood trauma and burnout — especially in high achievers.
Many driven, capable people pride themselves on resilience, productivity, and pushing through. But beneath perfectionism, people-pleasing, and overthinking often lies something deeper: early-life survival strategies that once kept us safe — and now quietly drive exhaustion.
This episode reframes burnout as more than physical fatigue. It’s often emotional. Nervous system-based. Patterned.
Together, we unpack:
Why burnout isn’t just about workload
The childhood roots of high-achiever traits
How survival patterns show up in leadership and performance
Chibs’ powerful “Mindfulness for Strivers” framework
Practical tools to build calm, clarity, and sustainable success
If you’re a leader, founder, professional, or high performer who feels constantly “on,” this conversation may change the way you understand yourself.
This one’s for the doers, the dreamers, and anyone ready to break the burnout cycle.

February 13, 2026 Living with Grief | Ashleigh Conwell
A gentle, real conversation about love, loss, and rebuilding after loss
In this deeply human and compassionate episode of Pick My Brain, we sit down with Ashleigh Conwell to explore the lived reality of grief after losing a partner — and the quiet courage it takes to keep moving forward.
This conversation gently navigates the complexities of grief that often go unspoken: facing events like Valentine’s Day without a partner, parenting while carrying profound loss, and learning how to hold space for both heartbreak and hope at the same time. Ashleigh shares her personal story with honesty and grace, offering insight into what it truly means to grieve, survive, and slowly rebuild a sense of meaning.
Rather than offering quick fixes, this episode creates a safe and reflective space for real conversation — one that acknowledges that grief is not linear, tidy, or time-bound. It’s a conversation about love, loss, identity, and the power of being seen and understood.
Aligned with Cuppa's commitment to using conversations to create impact, this episode reminds us that sharing stories can reduce isolation, deepen empathy, and help others feel less alone in their own experiences of loss.
This conversation will benefit:
Anyone navigating the loss of a partner
Parents grieving while supporting their children
People supporting loved ones through grief
Leaders and community members seeking to foster empathy and understanding
Key Takeaways:
*A deeper understanding of grief and its many forms
*Insight into parenting through loss with compassion and honesty
*Language and perspective to support yourself or others through grief
*Permission to grieve in your own way, in your own time

February 11, 2026 [DELETED ON YOUTUBE] Redefining Healthy Relationships | Isiah McKimmie
This special Pick My Brain conversation with Isiah McKimmie invites us to reimagine what healthy romantic relationships can truly look like.
In a world where love is often idealised, simplified, or shaped by unrealistic expectations, this episode creates space for a more honest, grounded and compassionate conversation. Together, we explore the real challenges and opportunities within romantic relationships – from navigating intimacy and communication to building affection, trust, balance, boundaries and emotional safety over time.
With warmth, clarity and practical insight, Isiah shares evidence-based perspectives and lived wisdom to help us better understand ourselves and our partners. This conversation goes beyond “relationship advice” to examine how healthy relationships are built through awareness, respect, and intentional connection – especially during life’s busy, messy and emotionally complex moments.
This conversation will benefit:
Anyone in a romantic relationship, those dating or navigating change, and individuals seeking healthier patterns of connection, communication and self-understanding – including leaders who recognise that the quality of our relationships shapes the quality of our lives.
Key takeaways include:
- What healthy intimacy really means (emotionally and physically)
- How to communicate needs, boundaries and desires with clarity and care
- Practical ways to build connection without losing yourself
- Reframing love as a practice, not a performance
- Small, meaningful shifts that can strengthen trust and balance over time

February 09, 2026 When a Relationship Ends | Naomi Cao
Honest insights on divorce, decision-making, and finding support
Divorce is often spoken about in whispers or statistics, yet for those living it, the experience is deeply personal, complex, and life-altering. In this Pick My Brain episode, we sit down with Naomi Cao to explore the realities of divorce — beyond the paperwork, timelines, and legal terminology.
Together, we unpack the legalities, the importance of the right support, and the often-unspoken emotional and practical realities that arise when a relationship ends. This is not a conversation about blame or failure, but about clarity, agency, and navigating one of life’s most significant transitions with greater understanding and compassion.
Naomi shares grounded insights into what people commonly face when separating — from decision-making under pressure and navigating systems that can feel overwhelming, to recognising when and where to seek professional, emotional, and community support. We explore how informed conversations can reduce fear, minimise harm, and help individuals move forward with confidence and dignity.
This conversation will benefit anyone experiencing divorce, contemplating separation, supporting a loved one through it, or seeking a more human, informed perspective on what divorce really involves.
Key takeaways include:
*A clearer understanding of the legal and practical realities of divorce
*The role of support systems in navigating change and uncertainty
*Common misconceptions and emotional challenges people face
*How informed, compassionate conversations can create better outcomes
At Cuppa, we believe conversations create impact — and this episode offers one that empowers people to move through divorce feeling seen, supported, and better equipped for what comes next.

February 03, 2026 [DELETED ON YOUTUBE] Reset and Rise | Shannah Kennedy
A Personal Plan for Sustainable High Performance
What if the most powerful way to start the year isn’t by pushing harder — but by pausing with purpose?
In this Cuppa.tv conversation, we’re joined by leading life coach and strategist Shannah Kennedy to explore Reset & Rise: a grounded, strategic reset designed for people who want to lead themselves well and perform sustainably.
This is not a motivational wellbeing session. It’s an intentional pause — an invitation to step out of autopilot and into conscious self-leadership.
Together, we explore how sustainable high performance is built from the inside out. Drawing on Shannah’s signature pillars of Self Awareness, Self Leadership, and Self Management, the conversation weaves guided reflection, breathwork, nervous-system regulation, psychology, and strategic planning. We unpack how to clarify values, reconnect to vision, and set goals with intention — while embedding habits and boundaries that protect energy and focus.
We also explore the science of happiness and the often-overlooked art of celebration, showing how success is anchored not just cognitively, but emotionally and neurologically.
At Cuppa.tv, we believe conversations create impact. This episode offers more than inspiration — it provides practical tools and reflective space to design a personal plan rooted in clarity, calm confidence, and values-aligned action.
Key Takeaways
*How to reset intentionally and lead yourself with clarity
*Tools to regulate your nervous system and protect energy
*Ways to align goals with values, vision, and wellbeing
*Practical habits and boundaries for sustainable performance
*Why celebration matters for motivation, confidence, and success
A powerful conversation for anyone ready to rise with presence, purpose, and vitality.

January 18, 2026How Food Can Change Lives | Rob Caslick & the Two Good Co
How can food transform lives?
In this powerful episode of Moments to Movements, host Luke Cook sits down with Rob Caslick, founder of Two Good Co, to explore how a simple idea—food made with dignity—has grown into a movement empowering women with lived experience of homelessness, domestic violence and complex trauma.
Rob shares the pivotal moment that shaped his purpose: visiting a soup kitchen at just 12 years old with his grandmother. Years later, after building an organic soup kitchen in Sydney’s Kings Cross, Rob realised that charity alone wasn’t enough. Sustainable impact required meaningful employment, connection and choice.
Today, Two Good Co employs and supports vulnerable women through high-quality food and products—working towards a mission of employing 80 women every year.
This conversation explores:
Turning compassion into scalable social impact
Why employment is key to breaking cycles of disadvantage
Building dignity, independence and connection through food
The realities of creating a purpose-driven business
How leaders can use business as a force for good
Be inspired. Take action.
🌱 About Two Good Co
Two Good Co is a business for good. Through beautifully crafted food and products, they support and employ women with lived experience of homelessness, domestic violence and complex trauma—helping rebuild independence, confidence and self-worth.
