One of the greatest privileges of hosting Seize the Yay for almost eight years is that so many of our guests aren't just someone I meet and interview once. I'm so lucky to have watched many of their stories unfold in real time and today's guest is one of those people - I'd go so far as to say she's been one of the most impactful people on my own pathyay. I've known Bree Johnson for years had a…
Imagine taking plastic waste in a region with some of the highest plastic pollution, turning it into life changing schools, building them in just six weeks... and making them earthquake resilient at the same time. When I first heard about Classroom of Hope’s world first Block Schools, I was lost for words and desperate to work together in some way. I am so thrilled to share this episode with CEO…
Many people hear the word influencer and make instant assumptions about overnight success, accidental fame and a consequently relaxed or even lazy work ethic (and very occasionally those might be justified). But while Elle Ray’s meteoric rise was indeed unplanned in the sense that she once thought herself destined to be a geneticist, it certainly wasn’t accidental with every bit of her success…

One of life’s greatest story arcs is when you grow up fangirling someone famous then actually get to tell them later in life when you become mates - bonus points if they're as lovely as you'd hoped and Dan MacPherson is exactly that. If you’re part of the demographic of people who listen to this show, chances are you’ve also seen, heard and watched Dan's evolution through television, film, theatre…
My guest today is someone who completely changed the way we think about fine jewellery Noura Sakkijha is the incredible co-founder and CEO of Mejuri - the cult global brand that turned fine jewellery from something saved for special occasions into something for women to buy for themselves, every single day. A third-generation jeweller with a background in engineering, Noura built Mejuri from a…
We are back after an episode off, thank you so much for your patience while we worked some magic in the back end. Somehow, we are already seizing the MAY and are just days away from Mother’s Day, so I lined up the perfect guest for a yap about one of the most defining facets of being a mum. I could genuinely talk for an entire series (nay an entire podcast) about the mental load of parenting and…
