Work That Feeds You : How to Build Purpose-Led Work Rooted in Values and Equity
How do you create Work That Feeds You while balancing the challenges of running a business and staying true to your purpose and values?
In this episode, Sangeetha Mahadevan, Managing Partner, Omnicom Media, interviews Collette Philip, Founder of Brand by Me, exploring what it truly means to build and sustain work that feeds you emotionally, ethically, and mentally. This episode also highlights that while work that feeds you is rooted in driving meaningful impact, it must equally empower you to financially build the life you want for yourself and your family. As Brand by Me celebrates 10 years, Collette reflects on her journey and the conversation uncovers how purpose, values, entrepreneurship and impact can come together to shape a deeply fulfilling career.
This episode touches upon:
·Collette’s inspiring journey from working at large advertising agencies to founding her own purpose-driven brand consultancy, Brand by Me, followed by her clear focus on wanting to only work with brands that are doing good in the world
· How not seeing a career or role for yourself is a signal to build your own and to see setbacks not as barriers, but as stepping stones to forge a path that is authentically yours
·Purpose-led work often begins with recognising gaps and having the courage to create something different
·Practical tips on how not only to build work that feeds you but also to stay consistent in doing so without draining yourself
·The need for purpose led work to also be financially thriving and allowing you to build the life you want
·Importance of regular reflection and creative outlets outside of work to keep it sustainable and personally nourishing

Decoding the Unspoken Rules of Leadership
Ever feel like everyone else got a handbook you didn't? Like there are invisible rules at work that no one actually tells you?
In this episode, Cristina Loaiza (https://www.linkedin.com/in/cristinaloaizauk/) the host and Founder of FUTURES talks to Nicola Davy (https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolahamilton/) – a marketing leader who's navigated agency life, client side, scale-ups, corporates, and iconic brands like Jo Malone and The Cambridge Satchel Company – about the unspoken norms that shape success (and how to spot them before they trip you up.).
Nicola shares stories from her career transitions and opens up about:
The invisible practices that were hardest to adjust to when moving between different organisations and sectors
How to figure out if a company's hidden rules will help or hinder your growth
What she wishes someone had told her earlier about navigating workplace cultures
How she helps her teams become aware of unwritten expectations
The lessons she's taking into her next chapter (including a peek at what's coming next)
If you've ever wondered why some people just seem to "get it" while others struggle to fit in or get ahead, this conversation will give you the tools to decode what's really going on – and decide which rules are worth following.
