Melissa Leong knows what it means to start over—and in this powerful episode of brand new podcast ‘You’re Gonna Want To Hear This’, she tells OzHarvest founder Ronni Kahn exactly how she found the guts to rip up her life and begin again. From “listening to your gut” to learning that “discomfort breeds growth,” Melissa shares candid stories of moving to rural Tasmania, fighting imposter syndrome, and facing her sense of self-worth head-on.

Ronni and Melissa dive into what it really takes to reinvent yourself, discussing heartbreak, resilience, and the art of “being comfortable with being uncomfortable.” If you’ve ever wondered how to overcome fear and back yourself when life takes a sharp turn, this conversation will inspire you to “stand on your own, unadorned—and hold yourself.”

With heartfelt reflections on agency, aging, vulnerability, and kindness, Melissa reminds us: “You do not have to correct the narrative that exists or justify it in any way. Just by existing and living in your truth, you’ll be okay—and in the long run, everything will work out.” And Ronni’s message is something everyone needs to hear: “Kindness is free, and every single person would benefit from it.”

Jacinda Ardern (former New Zealand Prime minister and author of the gripping account 'A Different Kind Of Power') joins Marie Claire Editor Georgie McCourt for an intimate and inspiring conversation about leadership, empathy, and the challenge of balancing global responsibility with motherhood.

A new power of kindness and authenticity, leading with empathy. 

“I refuse to believe you cannot be both compassionate and strong,” Jacinda shares, echoing her hallmark approach to navigating tumultuous crises on the world stage. She recounts moments of self-doubt not as setbacks, but as signals to summon even greater courage in the service of others. “One of the criticisms I’ve faced over the years is that I’m not aggressive enough or assertive enough, or maybe somehow, because I’m empathetic, I’m weak. I totally rebel against that.”

Jacinda opens up about her time in office, reflecting on self-doubt, courage, and why kindness is one of the most powerful qualities a leader can have.

Together, they explore navigating crises, finding joy in the everyday, and raising the next generation with compassion and purpose.
