In part 2 of the Wellness Series we sat down with our special guest Dr Liza Chervonsky, Director of Inlight Psychology, to chat all about looking after your mental well-being, things that we are faced with on a daily basis - burnout from work, stress & anxiety from life events & relationships. Liza discussed when to seek professional help and the importance of prevention and management, rather than to wait for a crisis to arise.

We also got a rundown of the different attachment styles when it comes to romantic relationships and some juicy tips on how to manage your relational style and become more secure, in order to build healthy relationships over time.

We simply cannot get over how excited we are for this episode. This week we chat to Justin Truong & Sandy Li, Co-Founders of PUSHAS, Forbes 30 under 30s listers, husband & wife (couple goals!!) and friends of the LTIO podcast.

Justin and Sandy didn't hold back from sharing about their journey growing PUSHAS from a small two person business into a venture capital backed start-up, while changing the sneaker game & contributing to the culture of street wear in Australia.

We learned so much from them and their philosophies in business & life (explained impeccably through Justin's metaphors). If you're curious about running a small business, becoming a founder or being in business with your partner, this episode is for you!

Welcome to part 1 of our Wellness Series. One of the key pillars of our podcast is Wellness & Self-care and this week we're beyond thrilled to have Annaleise Collier, Founder of Your Gut Feeling and an Accredited Practising Dietitian out of Sydney's East.

We took it back to basics and asked Annaleise a bunch of questions around common gut health topics like Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), lactose intolerance, FODMAP diet and how to look after your gut health to improve mental clarity and well-being. Annaleise gave us some generous and practical tips on designing your diet and nutritional habits for variety and health benefits and solid advice on when to see a nutritionist, a naturopath and a dietitian. Plus, listen to this episode to learn more about the effects of alcohol and coffee on your gut health!

This week we tackle the elephant in the room, TECH LAYOFFS! It's been the talk of the (tech) town for the last few months with lots of uncertainties, anxiety and a sense of sadness to see our colleagues and friends being affected.

We shared our view on redundancy packages, what to watch out for if you unfortunately get into this situation. Karen shares her own experience with being made redundant in the early stages of her career. The silver lightning of it all is watch our colleagues and friends make the most of this season of their life to reflect, pivot and pursue different paths.

We also address a big question that many are asking at the moment - is a career in tech still worth is and what to watch out for in terms of the next areas of opportunities!

In this episode we sat down to chat with James Peng, Head of Marketing at Arta Finance, a fintech startup, described as 'the digital family office for the world', that raised US$90M in venture capital funding in 2022.

James started his career as an investment banker in New York and built his expertise in growth and performance marketing over 10 years, while working for some of the largest scale-ups in the San Francisco Bay Area, think Match.com (Tinder, Hinge...) and Coinbase. He then relocated to Singapore to work for Grab and is now leading the Marketing function at Arta Finance. James was named in the 2016 Forbes 30 Under 30s List for Marketing & Advertising.

We talked to James about his experience being on the Forbes list, how he pivoted his career from Finance to Marketing, how to use your own diverse background & experiences in the workplace to your advantage, and most importantly, how to continuously invest in yourself.
