In this episode, we talk about something so many women struggle with but rarely get honest guidance on: returning to the workforce after taking time off to raise kids.

I break down what employers are really thinking when they see a career gap, why it’s not the red flag people assume it is, and how to reframe your time away so it actually strengthens your application rather than weakens it.

If you’re a mum preparing to return to work, this episode will give you the clarity, direction, and confidence you need to step back into your career.

In this episode, we break down one of the most important parts of the modern hiring process: the video interview.

I walk you through what a video interview actually is, why employers use them, and how you can prepare so you show up confident, calm, and ready to impress.

We also talk about how my experience as a recruiter and career coach can help you avoid the common traps candidates fall into.

You’ll hear practical tips on setting up your space, managing nerves, answering questions clearly, and presenting yourself professionally on camera. 

And at the end, I share some funny (and slightly chaotic) stories about candidates doing silly things during video interviews so you can learn, laugh, and definitely avoid repeating their mistakes.

If you’ve got a video interview coming up or simply want to get better at them, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and the tools you need to nail it.

In this episode, we dive into one of the most common issues people face at work: workplace bullying. 

I break down what is and isn’t considered bullying, the signs to look out for, and why understanding the difference matters for both employees and employers.

You’ll hear practical strategies on what you can do if you believe you’re being bullied, including how to approach the situation, and what steps to take to protect yourself. I also cover the key organisations and contacts you can reach out to for advice, support, and lodging a formal complaint.

Bullying doesn’t just affect your job, it affects your mental health.

Whether you need professional help, someone to talk to, or resources to help you cope, this episode points you in the right direction with Australian-based mental health options.

If you're experiencing workplace bullying or supporting someone who is, this episode will empower you with knowledge, clarity, and the confidence to take the next step.
