Can lawyers really be change makers?We talk with Michael Bradley who has taken on Murdoch as well as defending the rights of refugees about what it takes to be a lawyer and a change maker at the same time. He shares his 20 year journey from conventional law to a different kind of lawyering that he has now practiced for 17 years at Marque Lawyers - and how he now centres his legal practice around relationships.He also shares a few war stories of how he has used the law to fight for justice, including the battle against Lachlan Murdoch's attempt to sue Crickey for defamation.Whether you are a lawyer or you are a lawyer sceptic - there is something powerful in Michael's dissection of the legal profession and his identification of a different way to practice the law.For more on ChangeMakers check us out:Via our Website - https://changemakerspodcast.org (where you can also sign up to our email list!)On Facebook, Instagram, Threads - https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMakersPodcast/Blue Sky Social - changemakerspod.bsky.aocial & amandatattersall.bsky.socialOn X/Twitter - @changemakers99 or @amandatattsOn LinkedIn - Amanda.Tattersall Hosted on Acast.

I am a great believer in the power of the spoken word. Poetry however has always been difficult for me and I have never really been able to fully appreciate it (or even get into it).But when my friend Ananya posted a poem onto her socials, I challenged myself to 'give it a go'.What I read was a revelation. I'd never connected so much with a piece of prose.I needed to discuss what I'd read and who better to do that with than the creator of that prose.Today I welcome Ananya to share her work and some insights into her journey with mental illness.SUPPORT US NOW.

Mike continues our Changemaker series with the life transformation of a paralytic who was carried to Jesus by his friends.
In 2015, Rochelle Courtenay came across an article that exposed the reality faced by many women experiencing homelessness or living in poverty in Australia. It described how some were forced to use socks, newspapers, or toilet paper to manage their periods due to a lack of access to essential products. Reading this, Rochelle felt she couldn't ignore the issue.At the time, she was running a personal training and photography business, but the idea of doing something practical to help took hold. She started small, asking her clients to donate period products, using her gym as a collection point. The response was immediate, and what began as a local effort soon grew into a nationwide movement- Share The Dignity.The charity's goal is simple: to ensure no one in Australia goes without the basic products needed to manage their period. It provides pads and tampons to people experiencing homelessness, financial hardship, or crisis, ensuring they can manage their periods with dignity.Beyond distributing products, Share The Dignity pushes for better menstrual health education and policy change. The organisation has installed dignity vending machines across Australia, offering free period packs in schools, community centres, and other accessible locations. It also played a key role in the campaign to remove the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on period products, a classification that unfairly labelled them as luxury items.In its first year, Rochelle encouraged her clients to donatea pack of pads or tampons for every glass of wine they drank in March. The support she received confirmed the willingness of people to help. As the initiative expanded, Rochelle faced the logistical challenges of building a charity—securing legal status, obtaining permits, and managing distribution networks. Volunteers, whom she calls “sheroes and heroes,” played a crucial role in overcoming these hurdles.Rochelle's motivation came from a mix of personal experience and the stories she encountered. She had faced struggles of her own and could imagine the additional burden of managing a period without proper supplies. One story stuck with her—a young girl in a domestic violence shelter who resorted to using stolen socks because she had no other option.Share The Dignity is more than a charity; it's a movement for change. While providing immediate support, it also challenges the systems that have allowed period poverty to persist. Its success in removing the GST on period products is a testament to the power of public action and advocacy. The charity's vision is simple: menstrual products should be as readily available as toilet paper, with long-term solutions embedded in policy, not just charity.For those looking to support this cause, there are many ways to get involved—donating products, volunteering, or simply raising awareness about period poverty. Share The Dignity is proof that small actions, when combined, can create lasting change.

Well, I'm excited! I have a repeat guest on the podcast, Tamsen Webster. Tamsen was here the last time she wrote her first book, Find Your Red Thread, and today she is here to talk about her newest book, Say What they Can't Unhear: The 9 Principles of Lasting Change.You know when everything is smooth sailing and you are enjoying an easy, breezy ride for a while? I know those times, and 2025 is not one of them for me. I am in a period of significant change professionally, so I was excited to talk with Tamsen about her book.The idea of saying what people cannot unhear resonates with me because I want to get my point across strong enough that it gets buy-in and is a good use of my time. As a resident intranpreneur in corporate and entrepreneur outside of corporate, idea buy-in and making friends with change management is crucial.During my conversation with Tamsen, we chatted about:What is the ding for Tamsen?The importance of giving our audience a reason to believe.Why is story the foundation for understanding?Tamsen gives an overview of what a persuasion proverb is and how to use them.What if someone cannot hear our story or refuses to listen? Then what?Her doctoral studies at NYU. She almost gave me the academic bug!Here is more about Tamsen:Part message designer, part English-to-English translator, and now part doctoral student, Tamsen Webster helps leaders craft their case for large-scale change. A sought-after speaker and consultant, she's spent more than 25 years developing the field and practice of persuasive message design, with a particular focus on the principles and processes that build buy-in that lasts.In addition to her work in and for major organizations such as Harvard Medical School, Fidelity Investments, and Klaviyo, she built and delivers the message design curriculum for Elemental Impact, a leading investor in impact startups. She's a judge and mentor for the Harvard Innovation Labs and a professional advisor at the Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship. She's also spent over 10 years as the Idea Strategist for one of only nine legacy-level TEDx events and was named to the Thinkers50 Radar in 2022. She's the author of two best-selling books, Find Your Red Thread: Make Your Big Ideas Irresistible, and Say What They Can't Unhear: The 9 Principles of Lasting Change which was named one of the top 10 management books of the year by Canada's Globe and Mail newspaper.Tamsen was a reluctant marathoner… twice; is a champion ballroom dancer (in her mind); and learned everything she knows about messages, people, and change as a Weight Watchers leader. True story.She lives in Boston with her husband, two sons, and her two brindle Greyhounds, Hazel and Walnut.If Brave Women at Work has made an impact on you, please share it with a friend or colleague.

The Disability Movement famously argues ‘nothing about us without us.' Wenn Lawson lives this creed as a world leading autistic advocate and researcher who has helped change how we understand autism and neurodivergence.

He reflects on the power of co-produced research, identity and difference in how we build knowledge together.

Send us a textIn this episode we are continuing to follow this theme of antidote making —which I have been talking about in some form for the last few episodes. Creating antidotes for what we see in the world. Becoming what we wish the world to be. This is no small task in a world on fire. It's the stance of a warrior. So today we are going to be talking about actions that generate love. This is for you if you've ever felt awkward, you wish to see more love in the world, or you wish to actually BECOME LOVE. One antidote for divisive times is unification. It's care. It's love. It's seeing the best in one another— it's being there for each other and seeking that out. It's anchoring in and making good feelings between people.
