SUMMARY:Learning That Leaves No One Behind: Inclusive Learning as the Backbone of Business
DESCRIPTION:Learning That Leaves No One Behind: Inclusive Learning as the Backbone of\nBusiness \nThe future of work depends on our ability to learn—but not everyone\nexperiences learning in the same way. Yet despite increasingly diverse\nworkplaces\, many learning experiences\, meetings and workplace systems are\nstill designed for a “default” participant\, unintentionally leaving people\nbehind.\nIn this special Movement Circle conversation\, Maria Doyle\, Shaheen Hajira\,\nAisling Smith and Katrina Loukas come together to explore what truly inclusive\nlearning looks like—and why it is fundamental to the future of work. Bringing\ntogether expertise in instructional design\, inclusive learning\,\nneurodiversity\, behavioural science\, trauma-informed practice and\norganisational wellbeing\, they challenge long-held assumptions about how\npeople learn\, connect and perform. \nTogether\, the panel explores how organisations can move beyond one-size-fits-\nall learning and create environments where every individual has the\nopportunity to contribute\, grow and thrive. From designing accessible learning\nexperiences and embracing neurodiversity\, to creating psychologically safe\nworkplaces and embedding systemic wellbeing\, this conversation demonstrates\nthat inclusive learning is far more than a training initiative—it’s a catalyst\nfor innovation\, belonging\, performance and organisational success. \nThis episode is ideal for HR leaders\, Learning and Development professionals\,\norganisational development practitioners\, people leaders\, facilitators\,\neducators and anyone passionate about creating more inclusive\, human-centred\nworkplaces. \nKey takeaways include: \n\nWhy inclusive learning is a strategic business imperative that strengthens engagement\, innovation and organisational performance.\nPractical strategies for designing learning experiences\, meetings and workplace systems that work for diverse minds\, backgrounds and ways of thinking.\nHow neurodiversity\, trauma-informed practice and behavioural science can help organisations unlock hidden talent and foster psychological safety.\nWays to move beyond compliance and create cultures where knowledge is shared\, people feel they belong\, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive.\nActionable approaches to transforming learning from a “tick-and-flick” exercise into meaningful experiences that create lasting behavioural change.\n\nAt Cuppa.tv\, we believe meaningful conversations create\nmeaningful impact. Join Maria\, Shaheen\, Aisling and Katrina as they reimagine\nwhat learning can be—and show why designing for inclusion isn’t simply good\npractice\, it’s the foundation of healthier people\, stronger teams and more\nsuccessful organisations. \n Check out our guests on Pick My\nBrain \nFB: @themariadoylestory\nInsta: @themariadoylestory\nLinkedIn: Maria Doyle | LinkedIn \nLinkedin: Shaheen . | LinkedIn\nSubstack: https://substack.com/@shaheenhajira \nInstagram: @aislingsmithneuroempowerment\nLinkedIn: Aisling Smith NeuroEmpowerment | LinkedIn \nLinkedIn: Katrina Loukas | LinkedIn\n\nWatch here: https://community.cuppa.tv/c/community-events/learning-that-leaves-no-one-behind-inclusive-learning-as-the-backbone-of-business-f2087815-e214-4369-ade4-ecf1c10b872b

SUMMARY:The Hardiness Effect: The Courage to Grow from Stress with Dr Paul Taylor
DESCRIPTION:The Hardiness Effect: The Courage to Grow from Stress with Dr Paul Taylor \nIn a world where stress feels constant and unavoidable\, how can we move beyond\nsimply coping to truly thriving? \nIn this thought-provoking conversation\, we sit down with Dr Paul Taylor\,\nauthor of ‘The Hardiness Effect’\, to explore the science and practice of\nHardiness – the courage to grow from stress. While resilience is often\ncelebrated as the ability to bounce back\, Dr Paul challenges us to think\nbigger. What if stress wasn’t something to fear or avoid\, but a catalyst for\ngrowth\, performance and wellbeing? \nDrawing on decades of research and real-world experience\, Dr Paul shares\nevidence-based insights into how we can build Hardiness in our everyday lives.\nTogether\, we explore why our response to stress matters more than stress\nitself\, how modern comfort may be limiting our potential\, and the practical\nhabits that help us become stronger\, healthier and more adaptable. \nThis conversation will benefit anyone navigating pressure\, change\, uncertainty\nor high-performance environments – from leaders and teams to individuals\nseeking greater wellbeing and personal growth. \nAt Cuppa\, we believe meaningful conversations create meaningful impact. This\nepisode offers practical tools and fresh perspectives to help you embrace\nchallenges\, unlock growth\, and flourish in an increasingly complex world. \nWant to learn more from Dr Paul\nTaylor?

SUMMARY:Buckets of Hope: Moving from Survival to Thriving with Abang Othow
DESCRIPTION:Buckets of Hope: Moving from Survival to Thriving \nWhat if hope wasn’t just something we wished for\, but something we could\nactively create\, cultivate and share? \nIn this inspiring conversation\, we explore the transformative power of hope\nwith a passionate advocate for wellbeing\, personal growth and lasting change.\nDrawing on lived experience\, years of leadership and teaching across\nAustralia\, and the practical Buckets of Hope Framework\, this episode shines a\nlight on how individuals\, families and communities can move beyond survival\nand begin to truly thrive. \nAt a time when many people are navigating uncertainty\, disconnection and rapid\nchange\, this conversation offers a refreshing and practical perspective on\nbuilding resilience through hope. We explore how visualisation can help shape\na more positive future\, why hope is a skill that can be strengthened\, and how\nsmall actions can create meaningful impact in our lives and the lives of\nothers. \nThis conversation will resonate with anyone seeking greater wellbeing\, purpose\nand optimism\, as well as leaders\, educators\, parents and community members\nlooking to support others through challenging times. \nInspired by the release of Abang’s new book\, Buckets of Hope\, this\nconversation extends beyond her personal story to offer a practical framework\nfor overcoming adversity\, cultivating hope and creating a life of purpose. As\nAbang beautifully writes\, “This book is not just my story\, it is an invitation\ninto your own. Because hope can be held\, shaped and carried\, one bucket at a\ntime.” \nAt Cuppa\, we believe conversations have the power to create impact. This\nepisode invites us to imagine what’s possible when we invest in hope—not only\nfor ourselves\, but for the people and communities around us. \nWant to speak further with Abang?

SUMMARY:There Are No Limits: AI\, Technology & the New World of Business with Karen Perks
DESCRIPTION:There Are No Limits: AI\, Technology & the New World of Business \nWhat if the biggest barrier to growth isn’t new technology – but the way we\nthink about it? \nIn this forward-looking conversation\, technology leader @Karen\nPerks explores how the rapid evolution\nof technology is reshaping the future of business. As AI\, automation and\ndigital innovation continue to transform every industry\, Karen challenges\nleaders to rethink what it means to be a modern organisation. Rather than\nviewing technology as a support function\, she argues that every business must\nbegin thinking like a technology business – using innovation as a driver of\ngrowth\, agility and competitive advantage. \nDrawing on her experience leading technology transformation\, Karen shares\npractical insights into how businesses can embrace emerging technologies\nwithout losing sight of the people behind them. Together\, we explore why\ntechnology is accelerating opportunity\, how automation is changing – not\nreplacing – careers\, and why adopting a growth mindset is essential in an\nincreasingly digital world. \nThis conversation will benefit corporate leaders\, entrepreneurs\, business\nowners and teams looking to future-proof their organisations and unlock new\nopportunities for growth. \nInspired by Karen’s belief that there are no limits\, this conversation\nencourages leaders to challenge outdated assumptions\, embrace innovation with\nconfidence and see technology as an enabler of human potential – not a\nreplacement for it. \nAt Cuppa\, we believe conversations create impact by expanding the way we think\nabout what’s possible. This episode will inspire you to embrace change\,\nleverage technology with purpose and discover that the greatest opportunities\nfor growth often begin with a shift in mindset. \nWant to learn more about Karen?

SUMMARY:What the Care Sector Can Teach Us About Human-Centred Leadership with Katrina Loukas
DESCRIPTION:What can leaders learn from workplaces where understanding human behaviour\,\ncreating safety and responding to individual needs aren’t optional\, but\nessential?   \nDrawing on her behavioural expertise and experience working within the care\nsector\, @Katrina Loukas explores the\npowerful leadership lessons that can be applied far beyond care environments. \nIn settings where people may be experiencing heightened stress\, complex\nbehavioural challenges or dysregulation\, traditional one-size-fits-all\nmanagement approaches simply don’t work. Instead\, leaders must understand\nwhat’s happening beneath behaviour and create the conditions people need to\nfeel safe\, connected and able to function at their best.   \nIn this conversation\, Katrina takes these learnings from the care sector and\nasks what they could teach every organisation about leading people.   \nTogether\, we explore the foundational human needs of stability\, consistency\,\npredictability and security\, and what happens to our behaviour and performance\nwhen these are missing. \nKatrina introduces concepts including psychological comfort\, social\nnourishment and co-regulation\, demonstrating why leadership isn’t always about\nsaying more\, solving the problem or following a rigid framework. Sometimes\nit’s about recognising what another person’s nervous system needs in that\nmoment.   \nThis conversation will benefit leaders\, People & Culture professionals and\nteams looking to create more human-centred\, psychologically safe and high-\nperforming environments.   \nKey takeaways include:   \n– What leaders can learn from behavioural practices developed in complex care\nenvironments.\n– Why stability\, consistency\, predictability and security are foundations for\nwellbeing and performance.\n– How psychological comfort and social nourishment can – change the way we\nthink about workplace culture.\n– What co-regulation looks like in practice and how leaders can better\nrespond when someone is struggling.\n– How to move beyond rigid management models towards leadership that\nrecognises individual human needs. \nAt Cuppa\, we believe conversations create impact. This episode invites leaders\nto look beyond traditional management thinking and learn from a sector where\nunderstanding the human being behind the behaviour has always mattered.\n\nWatch here: https://community.cuppa.tv/c/community-events/what-the-care-sector-can-teach-us-about-human-centred-leadership-with-katrina-loukas

SUMMARY:Beyond Redundancy: Navigating What Comes Next
DESCRIPTION:Redundancy can bring much more than a change in employment. It can affect our\nconfidence\, identity\, financial security and wellbeing—and leave us wondering\nwhat comes next.   \nIn this Movement Circle\, @Betsy\nWestcott\, @Ros\nHandley\, @Sam\nTrattles and @Nicole\nHatherly come together for an open\nconversation about navigating redundancy and workplace uncertainty with\ngreater confidence and support.   \nTogether\, they’ll explore the human side of redundancy—from wellbeing\,\nidentity and financial uncertainty to recognising your value\, navigating\nchange and considering new possibilities. The conversation will also look at\nhow we can better prepare ourselves for uncertainty and support others going\nthrough it.   \nWhether you’re experiencing redundancy\, concerned about what might be ahead\,\nor supporting someone through change\, this conversation is about creating\nspace for practical ideas\, shared experiences and hope for what comes next.   \nThe conversation may explore:   \n– The emotional and personal impact of redundancy.\n– Navigating changes in identity\, confidence and wellbeing.\n– Managing financial uncertainty and feeling more prepared.\n– Recognising and communicating the value you bring.\n– Finding opportunities and considering what might come next.\n– How we can better support people through workplace transitions.   \nAt Cuppa.tv\, we believe challenging transitions are easier\nwhen we don’t navigate them alone.

SUMMARY:Your Second Act: Designing a Life and Career with Purpose After 50 with Shannah Kennedy
DESCRIPTION:What if turning 50 wasn’t about slowing down\, but an opportunity to\nintentionally design what comes next?   \nIn this inspiring and practical conversation\, @Shannah\nKennedy explores the growing movement\nof people rethinking the second half of their lives. With longer careers\,\nchanging family dynamics and evolving definitions of success\, midlife can be a\npowerful moment to pause\, reset and create a new vision for the decade ahead.   \nDrawing on her own experience of intentionally building sabbaticals and career\nbreaks into her life\, Shannah shares why creating space to reflect can be\nessential for longevity\, creativity and joy. Rather than drifting into the\nnext chapter\, she encourages us to develop a personal Life Plan—one that\nbrings greater clarity to how we want to work\, live\, contribute and spend our\ntime.   \nTogether\, we explore how to navigate a mid-career reset\, reconnect with what\ngives us energy and purpose\, and make deliberate choices about the life we\nwant to create beyond 50.   \nThis conversation will resonate with corporate leaders\, mid-career\nprofessionals\, empty nesters and anyone navigating change or wondering\,\n“What’s next for me?”   \nKey takeaways include:   \n– How to step back and reassess what you want from the second half of your\nlife and career.\n– Practical prompts to help you create a meaningful 10-year Life Plan.\n– Why career breaks\, sabbaticals and intentional resets can support\nlongevity\, creativity and greater fulfilment.   \nAt Cuppa\, we believe conversations create impact. This episode invites us to\nsee midlife not as a milestone to fear\, but as an opportunity to reset\,\nreimagine and intentionally design a second act filled with purpose\, passion\nand possibility.\n\nWatch here: https://community.cuppa.tv/c/community-events/your-second-act-designing-a-life-and-career-with-purpose-after-50-with-shannah-kennedy

SUMMARY:No One Is Talking About Climate: Why That's Not a Bad Thing for Business with Jo Taranto
DESCRIPTION:Has the conversation about climate changed—or has it simply evolved?   \nIn this timely conversation\, climate strategist @Jo\nTaranto explores why the language\naround climate may be shifting\, but the urgency for business action remains as\nstrong as ever. As organisations increasingly focus on energy security\,\nbusiness resilience and long-term sustainability\, Jo explains why this\nreframing presents an opportunity to engage more leaders\, build broader\nsupport and accelerate meaningful action.   \nDrawing on more than a decade of experience across government\, advocacy and\nindustry\, Jo shares practical insights into the changing landscape of climate\nleadership. Together\, we explore why businesses don’t need to be driven by\nenvironmental passion to make smart climate decisions\, and how resilience has\nbecome a strategic business imperative rather than simply an environmental\nresponsibility.   \nThis conversation is designed for corporate leaders\, people managers and teams\nwho want to better understand how climate-related challenges are reshaping\nbusiness strategy\, organisational resilience and future success.   \nKey takeaways include:   \n– Why reframing climate conversations around resilience and energy security\ncan help organisations take faster\, more effective action.\n– How businesses can make meaningful progress on climate without relying on\norganisational consensus or personal passion for environmental issues.\n– Three practical actions leaders can take to strengthen their organisation’s\nclimate resilience and prepare for the future.   \nAt Cuppa\, we believe conversations create impact by helping leaders navigate\ncomplexity with confidence. This episode offers a fresh perspective on one of\nthe defining business challenges of our time\, showing how organisations can\nbuild resilience\, embrace opportunity and lead with purpose in a changing\nworld.\n\nWatch here: https://community.cuppa.tv/c/community-events/no-one-is-talking-about-climate-why-that-s-not-a-bad-thing-for-business-with-jo-taranto

SUMMARY:Putting Children First: Rethinking Child Protection in Australia with Jason Blyth
DESCRIPTION:What if we measured the success of Australia’s child protection system by one\nsimple question: Would this be good enough for our own child? \nIn this powerful and purpose-driven conversation\, youth advocate and lived-\nexperience leader @Jason Blyth\nexplores why Australia needs to rethink the way we protect\, support and\nadvocate for vulnerable children. \nHaving experienced severe childhood abuse and spent time within systems\ndesigned to protect children\, Jason brings a perspective shaped not only by\nadvocacy\, but by lived experience. His message is clear: protecting children\ncannot simply be about meeting policies\, processes and compliance measures. It\nmust be about the experience of the child at the centre of every decision. \nThrough his Child First Model\, Jason is working to build a movement that\nchallenges governments\, organisations\, communities and individuals to raise\nthe standard of what we consider acceptable for vulnerable children. He asks\nus to move beyond awareness and good intentions towards greater\naccountability\, earlier action and a shared responsibility to create systems\nthat protect\, nurture and fight for every child. \nTogether\, we explore what needs to change\, why children’s voices and\nexperiences must remain at the centre of reform\, and the role each of us can\nplay in creating a safer future for the next generation. \nThis conversation will resonate with leaders\, educators\, parents\,\npolicymakers\, child advocates\, community organisations and anyone who believes\nevery child deserves the opportunity to grow up safe\, supported and valued. \nKey takeaways include: \n\n\nWhy we need to rethink how success is measured within child protection. \n\n\nHow Jason’s Child First Model puts the lived experience and needs of children ahead of process and compliance. \n\n\nWhy protecting vulnerable children requires shared responsibility across systems\, communities and individuals. \n\n\nHow we can move from awareness and conversation towards accountability\, advocacy and meaningful action. \n\n\nAt Cuppa\, we believe conversations create impact. This episode isn’t simply\nabout understanding the challenges facing child protection in Australia. It’s\nan invitation to help build a movement that puts children first and asks all\nof us to consider: if we wouldn’t accept it for our own child\, why should we\naccept it for any child?\n\nWatch here: https://community.cuppa.tv/c/community-events/putting-children-first-rethinking-child-protection-in-australia-with-jason-blyth
