This week Simon and Andrew take a moment to reflect by revisiting past conversations with four different guests who struck a chord with Simon for their leadership and advocacy work.

You'll hear from Nihal Iscel, WA Women’s Hall of Fame inductee for her advocacy work, about how she strives to bring people together to create community, and how resilience is an essential ingredient in becoming a leader yourself.

Linda de Rozario shares her personal experiences within the Deaf community and with Auslan, offering insightful reflections on the importance of connection, accessibility, and equality.

Lisa Burnette speaks about her experience with volunteering and all it's brought to her life and the lives of others, and shares her story of becoming a double amputee at 24 as a result of Meningococcal septicaemia. Lisa is the author of the book Learning to Walk, which you can find out more about here: lisaburnette.com.au
