  • Book Breakdown: The Courage to be Disliked
    Are we bound by our past experiences, or do we have the power to redefine them? it's time to challenge our thinking by contrasting psychological theories of Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler and how their ideas shape the way we see ourselves today.

    Inspired by The Courage to Be Disliked, we explore how shifting perspectives on past experiences can lead to personal freedom and growth. 

    What We Discuss:
    • Freud vs. Adler—two opposing views on human behaviour
    • Are we shaped by past trauma or our present choices?
    • Why taking responsibility for our experiences can be freeing
    • The difference between therapy and real-world problem-solving
    • Practical ways to reframe your past and take control of your future

  • I Lived Out Of A Backpack For An ENTIRE Year
    Have you ever felt like the traditional overseas experience (OE) or short-term travel just wasn’t the right fit for you? Well here is my alternative for long-term, flexible travel that allows for independence, and HUGE self-discovery. We are discussing how to design a lifestyle that works for you, one that goes beyond hostels and fast-paced itineraries. I chat the highs, the challenges and the unexpected lessons that come with remote work and slow travel - my life for the last year! 

    What we discuss:

    ✅ How choosing the right style of travel can change your experience entirely
    ✅ How to know if the digital nomad life and remote work is the right choice for you
    ✅ The difference between doing what you want vs. what you should while traveling
    ✅ The unexpected lessons this lifestyle teaches you
    ✅ Why solo travel might be the best way to start or are you best suited to solo travel?
    ✅ The realities of balancing work, travel, and personal growth
    ✅ What this lifestyle has given vs. what it has taken away

  • Breadcrumb 103 - You are not the sum of your achievements
    Is imposter syndrome a HOAX? In a previous interview with semi-finalist for Young New Zealander of the Year 2023, Nina Santos gives as a wake up call to how we can approach imposter syndrome from a new lens. Within this conversation we break down societies view on women, ethnic communities and work. In this Breadcrumb, it's all about the concept of "faking it 'till you make it" - is it true?

  • How to WIN at Networking (& Build Strong Connections)
    We’ve all been told that networking is the key to success, but what if we’re doing it all wrong? In this episode, we break down why traditional networking advice is outdated and how the real key to building strong connections isn’t about confidence, extroversion or "working the room" it’s about being a good human. Whether you're an introvert or just tired of forced networking events, this is the guide you need.

    What We Discussed:
    • Why being “more charismatic” isn’t the answer to better networking.
    • How to find the right environment where you thrive (without forcing yourself into awkward events).
    • The underrated skillset that builds stronger connections than a perfect elevator pitch.
    • What makes networking effortless and why it’s happening all the time, even when you don’t realise it.
    • The one mindset shift that will make networking feel natural (and actually get you results).
