Ever caught yourself rehearsing what to say at work - terrified one wrong phrase could spark backlash? In this Quick Win, I speak with Clare Stephens, former Editor-in-Chief at Mamamia, about the fear of getting it wrong, how to handle mistakes, and why the most powerful apology is often the simplest one. Clare learnt the hard way that over-explaining a mistake can make things worse. After facing public criticism early in her career, she reframed her approach to errors – both online and in

When you’re on the edge of a big leap, do you spiral into everything that could go wrong? What if you asked a different question instead - one that opens the door to possibility rather than fear? In this Quick Win, I speak with educator and author Lael Stone about the powerful mindset shift from “How bad could it be?” to “How good could it get?” It’s a simple reframe that changes how we approach risk, success, and self-sabotage - and helps us recognise when fear

What if the way you argue with your partner or push yourself at work isn’t actually yours - but something you absorbed decades ago? In this Quick Win, I’m joined by educator and author Lael Stone, who explains how the stories we inherit in childhood silently shape our beliefs about relationships, money, and success.

How do you lead a team that kills thousands of ideas - and still keep everyone excited to create again the next day? That’s business as usual for Elan Lee, co-creator and now CEO of Exploding Kittens. You might not know his name, but there’s a good chance you’ve played one of his games. Exploding Kittens became one of the most backed Kickstarter campaigns in history - raising nearly $9 million from over 200,000 backers in just 30 days - and has since sold more than 60 million games

While you might expect someone like Elan to use AI to design wild new worlds or characters, that’s not what he does at all. Instead, he’s found a way to make AI his creative sparring partner - one that never interrupts, never judges, and somehow helps him think more clearly. In this chat, Elan

It’s one thing to be told you can’t have it all. It’s another to be told you can’t be both a CEO and a mother. When an investor said exactly that to Dr Catriona Wallace, she didn’t flinch. She refused to choose and went on to found Flamingo AI, one of the world’s first artificial intelligence companies, becoming one of only two women in history to list a female-led tech company on the ASX.

Her 60-day AI experiment wasn’t about replacing herself - it was about freeing herself from the operational noise that stops leaders from thinking, leading, and creating. In this Quick Win, Georgie shares how she built Scout - a custom AI assistant that automated the admin side of hiring and saved her 20 to 25 hours every week. By
