Limitless Conversations

Women in Leadership: Achieving an equal future. In this episode, we invite Leslie-Ann Smith, to help decode equality and "escalate the conversation". This past International Women's Month, the UN geared the month towards the awareness of equality and dubbed the theme "Women in leadership: achieving an equal future in a covid 19 world". But what does this all mean? As it stands, women are still over-represented in low-income jobs and under-represented in leadership positions, the pandemic has further shifted this reality into regression. With the help of Leslie, we peel back the layers of the different factors contributing to this regression particularly in a local context.

Limitless Conversations with Melisha Reddy A GBV Story 'It was just once' Gender-based violence is a pervasive issue in South Africa. Today on the show, we bring you a real story - not about a victim, but about a survivor of Gender-Based Violence (domestic abuse). Our Guest Melisha takes us through her brave journey of how she was able to turn her pain into power. In this chat, we cover Melisha's story and dabble into the nuanced female experiences that are often not spoken about - we all know about physical abuse, the scars are often there to see, but about 'emotional abuse'. We learn that abuse is a spectrum and this conversation could not be any more timely as it coincides with the global campaign - 'The 16 Days of Activism for No Violence against Women and Children Campaign', a United Nations campaign which takes place annually from 25 November (International Day of No Violence against Women) to 10 December. End Femicide. End violence against women and children. The Limitless Podcast is a fiercely independent vehicle that runs on the support of our incredible listeners - that's you!

Owning Your Seat at the Table A brutally honest and open conversation fiercely inspirational guest. Oneida Cooper Businesswoman, former athlete and trailblazer - Oneida Cooper joins us as the first guest of season 2 of the Limitless Conversations Podcast. We journey into her upbringing and discover the people and events that shaped the strong and fiercely inspirational woman that she is today. In this chat Oneida shares her experience as Miss SA 2020 contestant, what she really thinks about 'cancel culture' and the toxic environment that Twitter has become. We also discuss the futility of women competing with each other, when they should aim to 'complete one another'. Although 2020 was off to a rough start for her, she is finding her feet again and understanding that everything that has happened, was a necessary learning curve.

Joy is a Choice Purposefully Made There are differences between joy and happiness. But what are they? The pandemic took a lot out of all of us. But what we also learned is that we are so much more self-sufficient than we think, we can do with so little because most of the time all we need is already within. In this episode, and with the help of our Limitless Conversations tribe, we shared experiences and discussed some of the various forms in which we adapted and found ways to take back OUR joy in truly difficult times. We take a small journey and discuss the differences between happiness and joy - fundamentally we land on the conclusion that it is possible to feel joy in difficult times.
