What does it take to create a platform that amplifies voices often left unheard—and keeps growing with intention?
In this deeply personal and reflective episode, Joanna Dukkipati — writer, media founder, and PhD researcher — shares her journey of evolving identity, inclusive leadership, and the quiet power of gathering voices from the margins—not marginalized, but ready to be centered.
Key Takeaways:
How Good Day Cork was born in Joanna’s kitchen — and why it became more than just a magazine The real meaning of inclusion and what it looks like in action (hint: it’s not just about representation) Why Joanna calls herself a gatherer — of people, stories, and safe spaces Her pivot from PR and NGO work in India to becoming a PhD researcher on inclusive digital services in Ireland What collective leadership looks like — and how stepping back doesn’t mean stepping away Living between worlds: Third-culture parenting, code-switching, and rethinking “success” The tension between staying relevant, doing it all, and knowing when to let go Why her PhD is about impact, not just titles — and the importance of discomfort in growth
Recorded in person in Pune, this episode marks a special moment: Joanna is the first Indian-born guest on the podcast.
Whether you're a creator, an expat, a parent, or someone navigating transitions — this episode will leave you reflecting on what it means to create with purpose and evolve with grace.
