About This Episode

Chris breaks down the importance of SAP in simple terms, explaining how it acts as a single source of truth for organizations by integrating finance, HR, logistics, and operations into one unified system. He shares why this level of integration is critical in today’s fast-moving, data-driven world, especially as artificial intelligence becomes embedded into enterprise systems.

Jitin Jaggi is the Managing Director of Circadia Skincare (SAMENA), leading the brand’s expansion across Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Indian by nationality and UAE-based for nearly 35 years, his story blends deep regional roots with a global operator’s mindset shaped by scaling businesses across multiple territories.

Before skincare, Jitin spent 15 years building a licensed merchandise company from the ground up with his family, developing real-world experience in growth, hiring, processes, and partnerships. His move into professional skincare wasn’t a “perfect plan” so much as a deliberate leap, backed by research, self-awareness, and the willingness to start again in a new industry.

About This Episode

In this episode, Hilmarie speaks with Jitin about what it really takes to pivot industries without losing your confidence. Jitin opens up about imposter syndrome, why self-doubt can be healthy, and how a trusted inner circle keeps him grounded when decisions feel uncertain.

They also dig into the business of professional skincare: separating trends from truth, the importance of education, and why partnerships in the region are built on trust, stability, and long-term value. It’s a practical conversation for anyone building a career, a business, or a new identity, especially if they’re standing right at the edge of change.

Quotes

6:16 - Time is a finite resource. So, the longer you take to become good at something, you're basically just letting a lot of your goodwill go to waste to the point where people don't have confidence in you. So, you need to find the right path and you need to keep questioning yourself on is this the right path? Because you might not have too many chances to keep correcting yourself.

6:46 - I try to take lessons from our journey together when we were building up the previous business as well. And I ask them, you know, what are their opinions? I mean, I take everybody's opinions. In the end, I do what I feel is right because I have to live with that decision.

7:22 - I think the self-doubt is going to keep coming in several times in your career. But as long as you have a good group of friends who keep you grounded, I think that's very important.

10:25 - It's very fulfilling when you're able to create a business in which all parties make money. It's any business in which just a few of the stakeholders are benefiting it. That's not really a great business at all. So as long as everyone is actually benefiting from it and the consumer gets a great product, that's really something that Circadia helps to build.

11:51 - For an aesthetic professional, the most important thing is going to be educating your customers and your consumers of these products into what is the right product for you and how do you stick with classic skincare that works for you day in and day out.

13:55 – The founder was always very focused around not just educating people about the brand, but also about skincare in general, ingredient technology.

20:29 - Fear and uncertainty are not necessarily a bad thing. It's your natural fight or flight response. It helps you evaluate the situation more critically.

21:36 - You do have the ability to make a change and do something else that can help you move to where you want to be.

24:34 – Leadership means putting your team before yourself.

26:48 - Everyone's gonna lose at some point. It's just better to have done it a little earlier and learn from it.

Ayham Gorani is a Germany-born entrepreneur and computer scientist who has been building digital businesses for nearly two decades. After founding and exiting his first company in Germany, he moved to the UAE in 2011, drawn by the region’s momentum and the opportunity to build where his technical skill set was needed most.

As Co-Founder and CEO of Pemo, Ayham is focused on helping founders and finance teams reclaim time by modernizing how businesses manage spend. His approach blends long-term thinking with practical execution, shaped by real-world lessons in entrepreneurship, product building, and operating across fast-evolving markets.

About This Episode

In this episode, Hilmarie sits down with Ayham Gorani to unpack the decisions behind building a fintech company in the GCC, from timing the market to navigating fragmented regulations and infrastructure gaps. Ayham shares why he waited years before launching Pemo, what it took to issue the first card, and how “building foundations before speed” helped the company scale.

The conversation also gets tactical for founders: how to approach fundraising with discipline, why validation beats “is this a good idea?”, and how AI is reshaping fintech toward more automation and fewer interfaces. Ayham’s green pill moment is a reminder that growth often comes when there’s no one else to blame, and your success or failure comes down to knowing yourself.

Quotes

2:51 - Sometimes you just have to take the leap of faith and go for it, and the rest will come together.

6:09 - I wanted to help founders and business leaders really focus on what matters.

12:05 - We have built Pemo on a mindset that this is here to scale.

12:21 - We have established a strong foundation when it comes to building Pemo. That is one of the decisions that we took early on.

13:11 - I would probably add to that, I don't believe there is a right or wrong. And I believe as an entrepreneur, we have to be able to do both.

13:44 - A few learnings that I had personally that in order to raise funds, it has to be a very structured approach with clear deadlines, with clear preparation and being ready to go to market to close around very quickly.

14:59 - Build a team that can fundraise and that complements each other to get the traction that is needed to raise the funds.

18:03 - The skill set of validating ideas before building anything is very important, not only for the entrepreneurship journey, but for anything in life. 

19:50 - As entrepreneurs, we need to think of where the future is going and how the future will look, and then point in that direction and build the company accordingly.

20:42 - You have to think about your data and how you manage your data.

21:48 - Learn to validate.

22:27 - Trust my instincts, to really look into my own faults and try to optimize them because there was no one else to blame if things failed.

Musata Matei is Head of Partnerships and Growth at IGNITE in DIFC, and the author of The Mother Shift, a candid exploration of working motherhood and the leadership reset it demands. An expat for most of her life, Musata began her career in London’s high-pressure financial world, including a role at Goldman Sachs, before relocating to Dubai in search of a more sustainable, family-friendly way to live and work.

After experiencing maternity discrimination firsthand, Musata began journaling as a form of self-therapy, which eventually evolved into a book that blends her story with the lived experiences of other mothers and founders. Today, she speaks openly about the motherhood penalty, bias, mental load, and the myth of “having it all,” while advocating for a more human, inclusive leadership model rooted in emotional intelligence, empathy, and authenticity.

About This Episode

In this episode of the Matrix Green Pill Podcast, Hilmarie Hutchison sits down with Musata Matei (Head of Partnerships & Growth, IGNITE DIFC) to unpack what motherhood really shifts: identity, ambition, leadership style, and the definition of success. Musata shares how being fired while pregnant became a turning point, how Dubai offered a different path forward, and why leadership frameworks built for a previous era no longer serve the world we’re living in now.

The conversation dives into the realities many working mothers quietly carry: bias at work, mom guilt, the invisible mental load, and the burnout that comes from chasing the “supermom” standard. Musata offers practical insights for mothers in high-pressure roles, and also challenges companies to rethink performance, flexibility, and what inclusive leadership truly looks like. It’s a grounded, hopeful conversation that reminds us: motherhood doesn’t reduce ambition, it sharpens it and the future of leadership will reward the very skills many women were once told to hide.

Quotes

5:20 - I think the way we think about leadership, work, and parenthood has to evolve, both for women and men. And that's really what the Maver Shift is about. It's about raising awareness and encouraging today and tomorrow's leaders to embrace change.

6:10 - These are becoming the leadership skills that will matter most. They're no longer optional extras. And I truly believe that mothers, working mums, are the ones who embody all of these skills.

8:35 - Another huge experience that we have in common is the strength and perseverance that mothers have. We just don't give up. We keep showing up. Success for many of us is not about a final destination. It's about resilience, consistency, and continuing despite the odds.

12:42 - I believe more in, let's say, sustainability, to put ourselves first without guilt. I know that's easier said than done, but I truly believe now that if we cannot function, everything else eventually falls apart.

13:22 - The biggest advice that I would give to mothers who are really struggling to find that balance is not necessarily to chase that balance, but to put their needs first.

14:12 - I do believe that if you know you want to succeed as a mom and as a professional, you have to redefine ambition and success on your own terms rather than according to what society has told us or according to the expectations of others or even our families. We have to be the ones who define what is good for us and what works for us at every single stage of our life, and certainly every stage of our motherhood.

15:02 - For me, self-care is not just about spa days or bubble baths. It's about maintenance. And it includes both mental and physical health and the maintenance of all

Today, Reloved has helped save over 1.5 tonnes of CO₂ emissions through conscious consumption, while empowering individuals and families to participate in a more sustainable economy.

About This Episode

In this episode of the Matrix Green Pill Podcast, Hilmarie Hutchison sits down with Annie Stacey for an honest and grounded conversation about entrepreneurship, failure, and purpose-driven innovation. Annie shares the behind-the-scenes reality of building Reloved, from being scammed during early app development to navigating trust, logistics, payments, and buyer–seller dynamics in the UAE market.

The conversation explores the emotional side of founding a startup, including self-doubt, burnout, loneliness, and the pressure to “push through” at all costs. Annie reflects on motherhood, mental resilience, and why stepping back can be just as powerful as working harder. The episode also dives into circular living, conscious consumption, and how small choices can create real environmental impact. It’s a candid reminder that meaningful businesses are often built not from perfection, but from persistence, alignment, and the courage to start again.

Quotes

6:39 - I think in terms of advice, it would just be definitely do your due diligence, don't do what I did, and just assume everything's okay by a nice website.

19:52 - My biggest learning is just being yourself, be authentic.

20:37 - I love nature, I love being outside. I like actually grounding myself, putting my bare feet on the grass.

21:01 - It's the small things that matter and it's the small things that count. And if you've got your health and you're happy, then everything else is good. 

21:46 - My vision, my dream would be just for people to be more conscious of the what they're buying and what they're selling and to change the narrative to bring people onto a platform.

22:15 - Be a household name and to be recognized throughout everyone on who would use the platform.

22:44 – It's not going to be perfect. Just take the first leap, which is getting something out there.

23:04 - It is going to be a bumpy ride and enjoy the bumps.

24:19 - Trust the process. Surround yourself with positivity and don't sweat the small stuff. All your dreams will become a reality if you take the right steps in doing so. And take the time to be grateful rather than focusing on the next thing.

Scott Kelly is the founder and CEO of Black Dog Venture Partners and a long-time operator in the world of startups, sales, and venture growth. With a career spanning more than three decades, Scott began on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, moved into Silicon Valley during the early tech boom, and worked as an investment banker helping technology companies go public. He went on to found and exit multiple businesses, then built Black Dog Venture Partners to help early-stage companies fund, scale, and position themselves for exit.

Over the years, Scott and his team have supported companies in raising approximately $5 billion, with dozens of successful exits along the way. He’s trained 1,000+ salespeople, taught marketing and entrepreneurship at university level, and built one of the largest investor and partner networks in his space. He also runs VC Fast Pitch, an event platform that connects startups with investors and has helped raise over $130 million through pitch events. More recently, Scott launched the Emerging Managers Podcast, focused on bringing visibility to newer venture fund managers who often outperform larger funds but receive far less exposure.

About this Episode

In this episode of the Matrix Green Pill Podcast, host Hilmarie Hutchison speaks with Scott Kelly about what actually separates founders and sales teams who grow from those who stall. Scott breaks down the fundamentals behind consistent sales results, starting with a simple truth: sales is a numbers game, and most people don’t have a big enough funnel. From there, he shares how founders can build a real network (not just contacts), why relationships matter more than pitching, and what he sees as the most common mistakes early-stage companies make when trying to sell or raise capital.

The conversation also explores what makes founders succeed long-term, with Scott pointing to tenacity, humility, and the ability to pivot as core traits. He explains why funding is often treated as a solution when it may only be a symptom, and why strong execution comes down to building the right team around the founder, especially when technical founders lack sales or go-to-market strength.

Scott also shares one of his most memorable cautionary startup stories, highlighting how skipping product-market fit can destroy even heavily funded companies. He closes with a powerful “green pill moment” from the third day of his first job, a moment that shaped his belief in grit, opportunity, and never judging what’s possible by appearances alone.

Quotes

2:50 - You need to have a qualified funnel of people in contact because sales is work. You have to be willing to have a large enough network to overcome those objections and be able to go after other people.

5:06 - Establish a relationship with them first. Use events, use online social media, concentrate on relationships, not just contacts.

6:35 - Have confidence, but have humility, be tenacious, and be willing to change as the market or investors tell you to do so. 

9:44 - Build a team around you because investors don't just invest in ideas, they invest in the people who can execute on those ideas.

17:39 - Tenacity means being willing to do what other people aren't willing to do. 

21:25 - The greatest thing that the world provides us is an opportunity to build a business and build a legacy. It's hard, but don't give up.

Richmond Heath is the founder of TRE Australia and a global leader in Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE), a body-based method that helps people release chronic stress by activating the body’s natural tremor reflex. With a background spanning physiotherapy and mental health, Richmond has worked across a wide range of environments, from disaster recovery and trauma support to elite sport, corporate wellbeing, and everyday nervous system regulation.

His story starts with a surprisingly early “why”. As a child, after watching conflict on the news, he felt a deep pull toward helping people experience more peace and harmony. Years later, that instinct found a grounded, practical outlet through TRE. I

Today, Richmond’s mission is simple and powerful: support healing and resilience at scale by helping people reconnect with the body’s built-in recovery mechanism, and move toward “world peace, one body at a time.”

About this Episode

In this episode of the Matrix Green Pill Podcast, host Hilmarie Hutchison sits down with Richmond Heath to explore a different way of thinking about stress, trauma, and healing. Richmond explains what TRE actually is, why shaking and trembling are often misunderstood, and how the tremor reflex isn’t a sign that something is wrong, but a sign the body is trying to recover.

They unpack how TRE works in practical terms, why it can help people without needing to retell or relive painful experiences, and how it adapts across settings like disaster recovery, high-performance sport, and workplace stress. Richmond also shares the deeper long-term benefits he’s seen in consistent practitioners: increased groundedness, improved sleep, more creativity, stronger resilience, and what he calls “physiological maturity,” where the nervous system becomes more stable, safe, and centred over time.

Quotes

 15:18 - The beauty is that once you learn to access this natural process inside you, you can then use it on your own for free for the rest of your life. My job and our job is really just to introduce it to you and empower you with the skills to regulate it and integrate it into your life.

 23:57 - People learn how to self-regulate the tremoring. So, we lie down, you use a simple exercise to fatigue the muscles, the body starts to shake, and then we take the muscles off load and the body stops shaking.

30:31 - It's an absolute joy because being able to reframe, you know, someone's paradigm and then provide them with a process which, you know, there can be life-changing transformations happen in a single session.

 31:08 - It's an absolute pleasure and a joy and a privilege to be able to reconnect people with this process and this resource which is already inside them, and then to be able to empower them with that so they can take that away for the rest of their life. So, it's a privilege, a joy, and an honor and a passion to be able to share this with more and more people around the world.

32:08 - What does well-being mean to you? It means having peace within myself, harmony in my relationship with others, and joy and vitality at the experience of being alive in a human body.
