As Told By Nomads

As Told By Nomads is a long-running interview show about difference, leadership, identity, and the social systems that shape work. Its conversations are spacious. Guests are given time to explain how they came to their ideas, and the host’s questions often turn a personal story into a broader inquiry about belonging, power, responsibility, or change. The tone is warm without becoming soft. It is serious about oppression, shame, wellness, and equity, but it keeps those themes connected to practical choices people make in companies, families, communities, and careers. Recent episodes show the range. Becky Hall’s conversation centers on the art of enough, self-acceptance, ambition, inner criticism, and the hard reframe that can happen when achievement stops answering the deeper question. Paru Radia’s episode follows identity crisis, independence, shame as a tool of control, and the work of aligning passion with mission and vision. Lenore Champagne Beirne brings the discussion into venture capital, where founder resilience, inclusive innovation, community, and whole-person support sit alongside access to capital and technical business hurdles. Angela R. Howard’s conversation asks what human-centered workplaces require when global events, politics, identity, and organizational life collide. Lívia de Bastos Martini connects personal experience with chronic illness and sleep struggles to larger questions about wellness programs, employee engagement, and the value of physically active workers. Liam Martin’s appearance turns toward remote work, asynchronous management, and the rise of leadership that does not depend on office visibility. Tony Nabors’s episode grounds anti-racism and anti-Blackness in lived experience while also naming privilege and responsibility. Sarah Dusek’s conversation adds entrepreneurship, conservation, investment, and women-led businesses in Africa to the show’s wider map. Across these episodes, As Told By Nomads is less interested in quick inspiration than in the slow mechanics of becoming more useful, more honest, and more inclusive. It is a thoughtful choice for listeners who want business and leadership conversations that keep the human cost of systems in view.
