English, & Education with Peter from Aotearoa/New Zealand
This new All in Skills podcast with Peter from Aotearoa/New Zealand is a genuinely refreshing conversation about career growth, career change, having the confidence to follow your own path, and some of the lessons he wishes he had learned earlier.
For graduates and people starting out, Peter explores why it’s good to try different things before committing to a particular path; not to allow your career choices to be overly influenced by others’ expectations of you; and why we shouldn’t assume that everyone older has their career figured out.

A Career in Culture Building with Julie Dormand
Julie Dorman spent years waiting for someone else to give her the nudge to believe she was ready for the next step. It took advice from the founder of Mercer Bell, to back herself and her decisions even if they're wrong, to change that. Looking back, she wonders how many opportunities she nearly missed.
It's a pattern she sees constantly among women in her network: this instinct to wait until we're totally ready before taking the leap. Her advice now is blunt: it's a bit of a last-chance saloon, so go out and back yourself.
The conversation ranges further too, from why so many young professionals misunderstand how their business actually makes money, to why curiosity beats certainty early in a career, to how psychological safety, letting her team challenge her without getting defensive, made Jules a genuinely better leader.
It's a reminder that backing yourself was never about having all the answers. It's about being willing to try before you feel ready.
Tune into the full episode to hear Jules's story.
