    Career Evolution: A Candid Chat with Emma Hogan

    I always find it fascinating listening to the back story of someone's successful career journey. Have you ever wondered how successful people navigate the tough career decisions, how they orchestrate career transitions that seem insurmountable to others? Or how they emerge as respected leaders, despite very challenging business landscapes.

    Well you're in for a treat today, because I have the pleasure of sitting down with Emma Hogan, a true trailblazer in both corporate and government realms. From her senior roles at Foxtel to leading the Department of Customer Service, Emma has achieved a career that most people would say would be close to impossible. But as you’ll hear, her career success has not evolved by chance.

    What's eating you? with Kathleen Alleaume

    What's eating you? with Kathleen Alleaume

    How often do you catch yourself feeling a bit guilty about indulging in that extra serving or not shedding those last stubborn kilos you've been eyeing? Maybe it was the temptation of the leftover muffin from the team morning tea that threw you off your game. Well, we've all been there, haven't we?

    That desire to be at our peak health, performing at our best and looking and feeling good. I think it's universal. But let's face it, the path to good intentions and great practices is often paved with many challenges. And today I'm thrilled to bring someone onto the podcast who gets all of this. It is my friend and nutrition consultant, educator, author, and founder of The Right Balance, Kath Alleaume.

    In the podcast, Kath refers to a couple of credible websites for further information.

    Career Success: Time to elevate versus stagnate with Shannah Kennedy & Colleen Callander

    Career Success: Time to elevate versus stagnate with Shannah Kennedy & Colleen Callander

    Elevate. It’s a terrific word Elevate, isn’t it! If you’ve attended my programs, you will hear me say things such as ‘that style of conversation will elevate you”, and  “You will feel more elevated if you…”.  I use it because I love the idea of elevating the women I work with. 

    In this podcast, I am joined by two incredible women who have taken that thought to a whole new level. In fact, they have written a book called Elevate, their word of the year is elevate and elevating others is their mission.

    Shannah Kennedy, who you might remember from an earlier podcast, is a legendary life coach. It was an awesome episode because there is something super special about Shannah – in that episode, we talked about everything from 20-year life plans, vision boards, building resilience, how to refuel and so much more. I will leave a link to Episode 18: The YOU in your career in the show notes.

    Since doing that podcast together, Shannah has collaborated with a fantastic leader, Colleen Callander. Now let me tell you about Colleen. 

    Colleen has been among the 19% of female CEOs in the Australian business sector - I try not to go about the disappointing data and representation of senior women but 19% isn’t much – so huge KUDOS to Colleen. She was a CEO for 13 years, leading two iconic Australian fashion brands, Sportsgirl and Sussan. 

    Together, Shannah and Colleen bring a natural synergy. They are a dynamic duo and their business is called Human Elevation. In this episode, you'll discover more about their mission, and insights on what it means to elevate yourself. We’ll chat about their new book, Elevate and more.

    They both exude incredible energy, making our conversation a delightful one. So let's dive right in and meet these wonderful ladies.

    Style will influence your career

    Style will influence your career

    Style plays a pivotal role in our lives, particularly when it comes to nurturing a brilliant career. Style is the means through which we present ourselves. It's our mode of self-expression, a channel for communicating who we are to the world and how we choose to show up. 

    In this episode, I am entering controversial territory, to talk about style from the perspective of the way we dress and style ourselves – which some will say is irrelevant, shallow, or simply unimportant. But, I want to talk about it from the perspective of your career and how I believe style can be a potent tool.
