Have a listen to Dr Roze as she talks about a simple sounding idea which may just change how you think about your entire career. Dr Roze argues that instead of relying on one mentor… you should be building what she calls a personal Board of Directors. Careers are not built by individuals alone. They are built through relationships. No single relationship is sufficient. And no career succeeds in isolation. The evidence shows that people who progress are those who build intentional networks of support.

“The world is increasingly polarised and polarising. It is harder than ever to find common ground, and our brains are being flooded with ‘Single Stories’ about who belongs, who is ‘safe,’ and who is ‘one of us.’“ It’s the day after International Women’s Day. We’ve had the celebrations. We like to think our screens are mirrors—neutral reflections of the world that do not affect us directly. Have a listen to Dr Roze’s powerful reminder that this bias is a lie and particularly dangerous for women.

The festive season reminds us that December is when our digital and human lives collide. While algorithms offer comfort and ease, real human connection interruots, challenges and streches us. True growth comes from being present with family and friends not from online novelty. Happy Festive Season.

With the G20 and B20 gathering in Johannesburg this week, this topic couldn’t be more timely. Because beneath the motorcades and the policy papers, something far more human is shifting. We’re living in a world where grievance is rising faster than growth and that has consequences, both globally and right here at home. People don’t just doubt the system anymore — many believe it’s working against them. Have a listen to Dr Roze as she helps us make sense of this and reminds us that although trust may be collapsing — possibility is not.

Listen to Dr Roze as she unpacks Black Friday — or rather, Black November — and why our brains might be the real battleground in this perfectly engineered war on our senses. Few things show human behaviour better than Black November — this perfectly-engineered month where dopamine meets discount. It’s a fascinating case study in how digital systems shape what we want, when we want it, and how fast we act on impulse. It’s about staying awake in a world designed to keep us clicking. If you know dopamine’s driving the bus, you can decide when to take the wheel back — especially in Black November. Listen to the podcast to find out how.

Do we only see our youth in economic terms—unemployed, not productive enough, not “ready”? What is Shame and why is it different to guilt? Listen to Dr Roze as she discusses why shame is one of the most corrosive emotions a human being can feel, especially when you’re still forming your identity. Shame and guilt are often confused, but they are not the same. Guilt says: “I did something bad.” Shame says: “I am bad.” And as Dr Roze points out, for a young person, that is dangerous.
