Do you ever struggle to feel heard in the boardroom? Do you want to use your voice to make a positive change? Well, you're in the right place. Join me as I sit down with Florence Bavanandan, a classically trained soprano and vocal coach, turned podcaster, and entrepreneur as we talk about finding your voice through what she's learned in both the performing and the business worlds. Doing power differently starts with speaking differently, and as Founder of Clear Voice Consulting, Florence is working to address the wider conversation surrounding women speaking up, feeling heard, and retaining their authenticity while doing so. In the episode, we delve into the importance of advocating for yourself, why women speaking up is only solving half the problem of getting a more inclusive workplace, and Florence’s own journey from farm girl, to a classical singer, to an entrepreneur. Florence also discusses the value of having difficult conversations despite not finding common ground, and why the pressure of making a career out of your passion isn't always a good idea.
About Florence Bavanandan:
Florence is a classically trained opera soprano who, having performed at the Royal Albert Hall, and Alexandra Palace, alongside touring Europe and Asia, doing studio work for the BBC and Channel 4, and recording at Abbey Road Studios, is now using the skills she learned to use her voice and hold space on stage to help women speak up and make changes in the boardroom. A former Course Manager at the National Youth Choirs of Great Britain and Guest Lecturer at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance, Florence now works as a VC associate and Founder of Clear Voice Consulting, where she’s worked with HSBC, The Prince’s Trust, and Apple to build more inclusive working cultures for female leaders. She also hosts the Clear Voice Podcast “where successful women speak about how they found their voices and are using them for change”, filling in some of the gaps left in many discussions surrounding female “empowerment.”

Wera Hobhouse MP on Protecting the Values of Open Society and Liberal Democracy in Parliament 33:48

לפני 2 years33:48

33:48

Brought to you in partnership with 50:50 Parliament, I’m joined this week by Wera Hobhouse MP, the Liberal Democrat Shadow Leader of the House of Commons and Spokesperson for Energy and Climate Change and Transport as we delve into the importance of championing an open society in Parliament. In the episode, Wera reflects on how her upbringing in post-war Germany helped shape her commitment to protecting the values of liberal democracy, flaws and all, and why you need to defend these from the centre. We explore her passion for protecting the environment, how serving in local government influenced her approach as an MP, and how a backbench MP in the minority can influence legislation. Wera also opens up about the firsthand bloodbath of crossing the political aisle, and her memories of the night the Berlin Wall came down, so settle in, and get ready to listen as we explore the life and career of one of the Liberal Democrats rising stars. *** Please note at the time of the interview Wera was Spokesperson for Justice, Women, and Inequalities, and is referred to as such in the intro for the episode.*** About Wera Hobhouse: A committed pro-European and environmentalist, Wera is the Liberal Democrat MP for Bath. She was born in Hanover, West Germany where her passion for politics started with the anti-nuclear movement. She moved to the UK in 1990 after meeting her husband shortly before the fall of the Berlin Wall, becoming a teacher and local council member in Rochdale, first for the Conservative party, before defecting to the Liberal Democrats over her opposition to the development of 650 homes on contaminated land at a former asbestos factory. In 2014, she moved to Bath and stood against Jacob Rees-Mogg in the 2015 general election, before going on to be successfully elected in 2017. As an MP, Wera’s achievements have included helping more than 15,000 constituents with casework, making up-skirting a criminal offense in England, the successful campaign to re-establish a public-facing police station, and fighting for better mental health services and strengthening protections for domestic abuse survivors.

Lu Li on What the Startup Ecosystem Would Look Like if it Hadn't Been Invented by Tech Bros in Silicon Valley 43:18

Do you ever feel like your life is all about achieving what other people expect of you, ticking boxes to get ahead in a corporate career that, while others are excited… you’re not? Have you thought about launching your own business, but felt startup culture wasn't inclusive enough? Well, you’re not alone. My guest this week has been there, done that, and wrote the book on it! Joining me is Lu Li, Founder of Blooming Founders, aka the ‘Wikipedia of startup content’ and Author of Dear Female Founder. In the episode, we look at how Lu is redefining the UK’s startup ecosystem away from Silicon Valley wannabe tech bros, and towards a better, more inclusive, community-driven model. We also explore Lu’s resilience in the face of challenge, how in March 2020, after delivering 150 events, almost 3 years of workspace operations, and building a community of 6000+ members, the COVID-19 pandemic forced her to shut everything down, before pivoting and coming back even stronger. Throughout the episode, Lu shares her advice on bootstrapping your business, making business more human, changing investor culture, and why there has never been as much potential capital in the hands of women as there is now. This is an episode I can't wait to share with you! About Lu Li: Lu Li is a serial entrepreneur and business consultant with interests in web3 and NFTs. She is the founder of Blooming Founders, the ‘Wikipedia of startup content’, an award-winning company with a mission to make the startup journey easier for founders by helping them expand their network, provide practical business education, and by facilitating access to investors.

It is available to buy globally on Amazon and Kindle.

In another episode brought to you in partnership with 50:50 Parliament, this week I sit down with the formidable Baroness Jenkin of Kennington, or Anne as she prefers, to talk about the challenges of getting conservative women elected to Parliament. As the Co-Chair of Women2Win, a campaign group she co-founded with former Prime Minister Theresa May, Anne has been on the front lines of the fight to get more women elected on behalf of the Conservative Party. Anne and I explore what Women2Win does to help women candidates, what she’s learned from a lifetime in Parliament, and the pride she feels for her family’s role in achieving women’s suffrage in the UK. She'll also share her thoughts on imposter syndrome as a Baroness and why women don't talk about their health enough. So grab your popcorn because we're about to dive into a real-deal conversation about empowering women in politics! About Baroness Jenkin: “Gets stuff done, rattles cages, and wings it much of the time” as her bio puts it, Anne Jenkin is a powerhouse in UK politics. A Member of the UK’s House of Lords, and Great-granddaughter of Sir Willoughby Dickinson, who introduced the 1907 Women’s Enfranchisement Bill in the House of Commons, she is part of a political dynasty that covers all three of the UK’s major political parties. After a career working as a Conservative parliamentary researcher, Anne co-founded Women2Win with former Prime Minister Theresa May in 2005 and currently serves as the organisation's Co-Chair. In 2011, she was made a Life Peer by David Cameron and has continued to work tirelessly to promote women in public life. She is also a vocal campaigner for reducing waste in all its forms and promoting sustainable development, at home and abroad. Real, relatable, or downright wrong? We want to know!

To kick off a new season, I’m joined by one of my personal heroes, Elizabeth Lesser as we dive into the power of women's storytelling and the modern woman's fight for agency. In this episode, Elizabeth delves into her book "Cassandra Speaks," the #MeToo movement, and her own journey toward claiming her power. We discuss the fear of being disliked for speaking up and the importance of being true to oneself, even if it means making waves and ruffling some feathers. Elizabeth shares the lessons she learned from Brené Brown about the difference between being nice and being kind, and why being clear and upfront is often the most compassionate choice. Get ready to be inspired by Elizabeth's wisdom and experiences as a woman leader, author, and activist.

50:50 Parliament's Frances Scott on Building a Better, More Gender-Balanced Democracy 36:24

לפני 2 years36:24

36:24

Joining me for the first of a very special new sub-series looking at getting more women elected to power across the UK is Frances Scott, the driving force behind 50:50 Parliament, an organization dedicated to increasing the number of women in parliament. In this episode, Frances shares the mission and vision of 50:50 and how her daughter's election to school council opened her eyes to the lack of representation for women in leadership roles. She explores how that representation for women isn't just limited to politics - it's an issue that affects us in all areas of life - and shares her thoughts on what needs to be in place for women to thrive in leadership roles - representation, resources, responsibility, and respect. Tune in to hear more about how 50:50 is working to create a more equal and representative government for all. About Frances Scott: Frances launched 50:50 Parliament in 2013 with the 50:50 Change.org petition, and in 2016 started the "Ask Her To Stand" campaign to inspire and support women in running for Westminster. Since then, she has been working to help women get selected and elected across all political parties. Before entering the world of political activism, Frances had a background in operations and marketing, having worked in the hotel and tourism industry. In addition, she also taught antenatal classes and sat on the Maternity Services Liaison Committee of Mary's Hospital Paddington. In 2018, she was named one of the Evening Standard's #Progress1000 most influential political change-makers, while in both 2020 and 2021, she was included in the list of Women in Westminster: The 100, which celebrates the achievements of women who are shaking things up and challenging policymaking in Westminster.

Joy Morrissey MP on Finding the Middle Ground After Brexit and Why It’s Time to Make Politics Boring Again. 1:14:06

לפני 4 years1:14:06

1:14:06

For my last episode of the season, I’m joined by my fellow American in London: Joy Morrissey. Joy is the Member of Parliament for Beaconsfield and currently serves as Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. I wanted to talk to Joy in part because she has such an incredible story. She’s only the third American-born female MP in UK history, the first to enter Parliament after a general election, and the first to hold a seat in over 80 years. At the 2019 election, Joy unseated Dominic Grieve, the former UK Attorney General who had held the seat for two decades. I also wanted to understand what being a Conservative meant in a post-Brexit context and so that’s exactly what I did. We delve into how she first got involved in politics and why, despite voting Leave in 2016, she once thought she’d be working for the European Commission. We explore healthcare inequality in the US, the rise of nationalism and finding the middle ground in divided political cultures, how women are carrying the uneven burden of child-care in the pandemic, and why it’s well worth time we make politics boring again (along with many other topics along the way). Delivering balanced and intelligent answers to some really quite probing questions, and proving that you can disagree without being disagreeable, Joy is exactly the type of elected official we need more of. So until I see you all again in September with another batch of good troublemakers doing power differently, stay brave, stay kind and stay powerful. You can change everything for the better.

Author Sophie Williams on Being an Anti-Racist Ally 51:31

לפני 4 years51:31

51:31

After yet two more police shootings, and video of a black soldier being pepper sprayed, all in less than a week, this was an episode I originally planned to release as part of my next series in September, but I simply couldn't hold this back now. So, joining me on this week’s Power Done Differently is Sophie Williams, an advocate, activist, and author of the books Anti-Racist Ally and the newly released Millennial Black. A Creative Media Producer by trade, having worked on several notable productions including the Crown, Orange in the New Black and The End of The F***ing World, Sophie found herself the voice of a movement after an Instagram post went viral. We delve into all the uncomfortable topics we need to be having right now: We talk about George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Belly Mujinga, Stephen Lawrence, and so many other names that should still be here, how black women have been the backbone of much of social progress, defining what privilege looks like - for people off all ethnicities - and why you need to overcome the need to be liked by everyone. For Sophie, there’s a difference between simply not being racist and actively being an anti-racist. From her TEDTalk, we also discuss the glass cliff, how we all too commonly see it in politics today, and the regressive situation that is bound to happen when under-represented women of colour are placed into that poison chalice position. In her books, one of the suggestions Sophie makes for anti-racist allies is to “just listen” and so that’s exactly what I’ve tried to do, and I hope you will too. Real, relatable, or downright wrong?

Anti-Brexit Campaigner Gina Miller on Making Nigel Farage Blush and How to Disarm Your Enemies with Kindness. 53:06

לפני 4 years53:06

53:06

If you’ve been following the never-ending saga that is Brexit, or even just looked at Twitter at any point during, Gina Miller will be a household name to you. A serial entrepreneur, passionate philanthropist and advocate for responsible capitalism, Gina shot to fame over twice leading successful Supreme Court cases to ensure Brexit be democratically debated in parliament and who, in the process, became something of a favourite punching bag for extreme Brexitiers both online and off. But, if that’s all you know about her: there is so much more. In this episode of Power Done Differently, Gina and I sit down to talk about all things democracy: how the UK’s political system could do with some pretty serious reforms, why the Leave campaign won with emotion, and how she’s been cast aside one too many times for being an outspoken woman of colour. Gina also discusses her approach to befriending her bullies, surviving domestic abuse, how she made Nigel Farage loose his composure on national TV, and why she remains staunchly against looking, sounding, and behaving like a politician. In their review of her debut book, Rise: Life Lessons in Speaking Out, Standing Tall & Leading the Way , The Sunday Times called Gina, “a woman of true grit and courage, of whom we should all - whatever our views on Brexit - be proud.” This episode is a must-listen for anyone devoted to restoring sense, decency and emotional intelligence in politics.

You know how leftovers can sometimes be the best bit of a gutsy meal? Well, it’s the same with podcasts - there’s always rich pickings cut in the editing process, and they’re just too good not to share. I simply had to make a bite-sized episode from some of the best bits I cut from my interview with Tessy Anthony de Nassau, UNAIDS Ambassador, Co-Founder of the new feminist clothing line, Human Highness, and (of course) former Princess of Luxembourg. Tessy gave such an honest and candid interview, back during the ‘Tell It Like It Is’ days of the podcast, I couldn’t cram it all into the first one! So stick the kettle on and enjoy 16 minutes of discovering how Tessy learned to play with her children, the logistics of launching free summer schools in Sierra Leone, Uganda and India, and delve further into her research on psychedelic medical treatments - there’s so much more to Tessy than meets the eyes.

Joining me on this week’s Power Done Differently is Naomi Smith, CEO of the pro-Europe campaign group Best for Britain, and co-host of one of my favourite podcasts, ‎OH GOD, WHAT NOW? Naomi has been up close on some of the most significant political failures in the UK over the last decade. She was one of the few who predicted that the last election would end badly for Remainers, but when she tried to warn them, she was shouted down by MPs. So of course we talk about Brexit, the Labour Party and the Lib Dem's, but we also talk about so much more. Naomi gets candid about growing up in Northern Ireland during the troubles, what that can teach us about a post Brexit/Trump world, and how the racial harassment of a classmate by a teacher exposed her to how power can corrupt, and how abusers will use that power. We explore the role big tech has in the radicalisation of young men and directing violence towards women, alongside why most politicians don’t have the real life experience to be good leaders. While Naomi claims she has no interest in running for office again, I can’t help but feel politics would be all the better for having more women like Naomi Smith in power.

Diving right into the controversial topics, renowned biologist, fertility expert, and former Utah State Science Advisor, Dr Carol Curchoe joins me to talk about everything from abortion terminology and vaccine denialism to the challenges of STEM cell research in the US. A high school dropout with a complicated family background, Dr Curchoe didn’t take the usual path to becoming a distinguished scientist and successful start-up entrepreneur. She managed to break the cycle of poverty and become the first in her family to go to college, gaining her GED and working part time as a waitress - something she says should be akin to national service! In this week’s Power Done Differently episode, Dr Curchoe and I delve into her journey from smoking cigarettes in the high school car park to founding ART Compass, a successful startup which modernises the technology IVF labs use for automating data and improving patient care. We also discuss the importance of mentors, not fitting stereotypes, and the Handmaid's Tale-esque politicization of science education across America.

SPECIAL: Cassandra Rae and Rachael Amesbury on Meghan Markle and the Temptation Myth of Women in the Public Eye. 23:39

It feels like the entire world is talking about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, whether they watched the Oprah interview or not, and while I'm not one for royal gossip, I am interested in what it can tell us about discussions of power and the ways in which women in the public eye are portrayed for trying to do things differently. In watching the media coverage, it was the same age old stories being told: It was Meghan who was the 'temptress,' it was Meghan who took Harry away from his family, and quite frankly a lot of other incredibly sexist comments. It was incredibly tiring, and I couldn't help but feel like if we are interested in promoting a more inclusive and caring form of power, this was a teachable moment. Joining me to dissect the rabbit hole that is the British Royal Family is one of my previous guests, Comedian and Copywriter Rachael Amesbury, back by popular demand and because even when discussing serious topics, we still need the occasional laugh.

You don’t need to figure out everything on your own, that’s the message of this week’s Power Done Differently guest, Kristy Wallace. Kristy is a former investment banker, turned startup executive, who is now CEO of Ellevate Network, the world’s largest professional network for women, alongside serving as host of the Ellevate Podcast: Conversations with Women Changing the Face of Business. In the episode, Kristy and I talk about why communities are so important for accelerating the progress of women in power, how adding more diverse voices to the table isn’t an attack on white middle-aged men, and the fact that it really is the conversations that happen when you're not in the room that are most important for opening doors in your career. Kristy also opens up about how to fire someone with kindness, why leaders should be taking a big step toward creating a culture where all types of people can succeed, and much more.

This week’s Power Done Differently guest is on a mission to get people drinking better, and talking more. Former ad executive, turned entrepreneur, Dee Charlemagne is Co-Founder of AVEC Drinks, a line of premium, better for you mixers that bring 21st century values to a market still mostly stuck in the past. A first generation American, born and raised in the Bronx, Dee delves into the importance of intersectional identity as a black female founder, how she awkwardly fits between two very different worlds, and the privilege that is for entrepreneurs to pursue their dreams while still paying the rent each month. Dee and I also discuss how AVEC is bringing people together during the pandemic and the shocking statistic that only 40 black female founders have ever raised more than $1 million in Venture Capital funding in the US. With AVEC having already created a buzz on the drinks scene since its launch last year, being named a product to watch by the New York Times’ drinks critic Florence Fabricant, my money would be on adding Dee to that list quite soon.

Imagine being told you only had five years to live unless you ditched your high-stress lifestyle ASAP. Well, that’s exactly what happened to high-flying entrepreneur and former tech marketing exec Jennifer LeBlanc. Jenn is the Founder and CEO of Palo Alto-based ThinkResults Marketing, ranked as the 10th fastest growing private company in Silicon Valley in 2017, alongside serving as Founder of the Changing Tides movement, a platform which helps women in business get the investment they need, and author of two best selling books. On this week’s Power Done Differently, Jenn candidly discusses the devastating effects of her divorce and its lingering after-effects on her personal and professional life, how she emptied every bank account she had during the 2008 banking crisis to save her business and support her staff, and her unwavering drive to push capital into the hands of female founders. She also reveals the moment she realised she’d been running on empty, and gets frank about why all women should start talking about money far sooner than we actually do.

Quite the opposite of many of my Power Done Differently guests, Divya Gugnani never had huge aspirations growing up. Instead, all she wanted was to be a mid-level lawyer living in suburban utopia; white picket fence and all. But 60+ investments and a talent for co-founding successful start-ups are proof of her ‘accidental’ entrepreneurial story, and she’s not building that picket fence anytime soon. Listen as Divya shares her journey from proudly working 80 hour weeks at Goldman Sachs to hosting a cooking show on NBC, selling her e-commerce business to QVC for millions and co-founding Wander Beauty, a cosmetic company that specialise in multi-purpose beauty products for women constantly on the go. Divya also opens up about the personal pain points behind launching Wander, why she’s slow to hire and quick to fire, and how taking investment can be like a marriage without divorce. Honest and down to earth, Divya’s episode is well worth a download for anyone who doubts their own risk-taking abilities. You too can achieve great things. Real, relatable, or downright wrong?

Deliberate, brazen and direct, Anna Soubry is one of the most outspoken figures in UK politics, and yet she’s also someone who refuses to get her fingers dirty in the cesspits of populist extremism. In this week’s Power Done Differently episode, the former barrister, journalist, MP and Government Minister joins me as we dissect the decline, and tribalisation, of the Liberal Democrat party, the Remain side’s failure to use emotion when campaigning for a second EU referendum, and why women in political offices are both criminally underrepresented, and then over-scrutinised. Anna also shares her experience of abuse, harassment and death threats in the wake of fellow MP Jo Cox’s murder. Unapologetic yet empathetic throughout, Anna showcases a brand of political leader who we’ve not seen much of in recent years. It makes you wonder, where have all the good ones gone? An antidote to our polarised political climate, listen now for a much-needed dose of sensibility and reason. Real, relatable, or downright wrong? We want to know!

Everybody watches porn. Nobody talks about watching porn. Former BBH America Chair Cindy Gallop is adamant that this needs to change, and since her 2009 Ted Talk on socialising sex went viral, she’s been driving the discourse on that area we’re all the “most f*cked up” about. The Founder of the world’s first crowdsourced social sex platform, Make Love Not Porn, Cindy is a fierce advocate for everyone knowing the difference between sex and porn. In this week’s Power Done Differently episode, Cindy and I delve into the desperate need for equal representation in the creative direction of pornography, the toxic monopoly of sites like Pornhub, and her own struggles in getting investment due to society's love / hate relationship with ‘adult content’. Assertive, ardent and extraordinarily engaging, this episode should be required listening for anyone who watches porn (ok, that’s practically everyone) or has a vested interest in their own sexual self worth (er, yep, should be practically everyone too).

Ok, the cat’s out of the bag: Tell It Like It Is... is no more. But don’t worry, you'll still get your weekly dose of echo-chamber free conversations that keep you thinking for days to come. We’ve been on a sabbatical, learned a lot of things about ourselves and have come back more grown up, more nuanced, and ready to embrace our own power with a brand that matches that mission. Power Done Differently will continue to platform underrepresented and outside the box voices in politics, finance, tech, education and business, but will explore more deeply how these women are redefining what power really means - away from the traditional tropes of ego and aggression. This is the antidote for all of those of you who, like me, are tired of watching white dudes in suits f*ck the world up. In this bonus episode, I sit down with my good friend and emerging Tick Tok star, Alexa Shoen, to talk about why I felt the podcast was in need of a makeover, and how Power Done Differently is advancing an urgently needed alternative narrative about power -- why women should pursue it, how it can be achieved, and how it can be used to change everything for the better.

A woman of colour will be the Vice President of the United States tomorrow. Read that again. No coup attempt could stand in the way of that monumental diversification of power and we need to talk about it again. On this special episode, originally aired days after the November election, I was joined by a quartet of leading women in politics to discuss the result of the 2020 Presidential Election and what comes next. What does it mean to see the first woman hold the office of Vice President? What does it mean for progress? How will life be different now that our pussy-grabbing narcissist’s days are numbered? Joining Cassandra to help answer all these questions and more are Valerie Petit, Député of the French National Assembly; Luisa Porritt, Liberal Democrat candidate for London Mayor and former Member of the European Parliament, Dianne Morales Non-profit CEO and current Democratic primary candidate for New York City Mayor, and CNN/ABC Political Commentator, Senior Advisor to the Lincoln Project and co-Host of ‘The Breakdown’ on LPTV, Tara Setmayer.
