In our special bonus episode, we reflect on the powerful conversations shared throughout our Taking Pride series—bringing together the key themes, insights, and practical takeaways from our four incredible guests.

From understanding the evolving language of gender identity to the importance of authentic allyship, cultural sensitivity, and courageous leadership, we revisit the moments that truly moved us—and the lessons we hope to carry forward in our work and lives.

Whether it was Steph’s reminder to lead with curiosity, Olly’s story of self-definition, Sophie’s call to show up for others, or Bhavna’s wisdom around mindset and multicultural identity—each episode added depth to our understanding of what everyday Pride really looks like.

This wrap-up episode is all about celebrating progress, acknowledging the work still to do, and encouraging you to stay open, ask questions, and keep the conversation going—365 days a year. Its not just about the badge or the lanyard - its about showing up as a human being and for many, our workplaces are our second homes and our colleagues our families.

In the fourth episode of our Taking Pride series where we hear from different community perspectives, we’re joined by the inspiring Bhavna Raithatha—also known as the Mindset Ninja—for a powerful conversation about Pride, resilience, and the layered experiences of cultural identity.

Bhavna shares her personal journey of overcoming trauma, navigating bullying, and embracing her 'tri-cultural' identity with grace and grit. With warmth and wisdom, she unpacks the emotional toll of societal expectations, the pressure of representation, and the deep need for community support in finding a sense of belonging.

Through honest reflections and thought-provoking insights, Bhavna highlights how mindset, collaboration, and empathy are vital tools for personal and professional growth. We explore how leaders can show up with courage, practice authentic allyship, and create safer spaces where people feel seen, supported, and free to be themselves.

This episode is an invitation to explore the richness of cultural education, the strength of self-exploration, and the importance of embracing our whole selves—especially during Pride and beyond. As Bhavna says: Lay down your fear. Do it Scared.

In the third episode of our Taking Pride series, we explore the vital role of allyship in creating safe, respectful spaces for LGBTQIA+ colleagues—especially those who may be vulnerable or marginalised.

We’re joined by the courageous and articulate Sophie, who shares deeply personal stories of moments where a lack of allyship turned already challenging experiences into something far more painful. Her reflections highlight why recognising, respecting, and celebrating differences isn’t just nice to have—it’s essential.

This episode is a call to action for all of us to notice when support is needed and to have the courage to stand by someone or call others in with compassion and clarity.
