Penny Locaso on facing your fears & stepping into your future.
02/22/20 • 66 min
Dearest you.
An honest conversation with Happiness Hacker and founder of Hacking Happy, Penny Locaso. We met as speakers on Pink Hope’s Women Who Lead panel in 2019, and quickly bonded over our shared mission to help people connect with what really matters.
The advice Penny generously shares in this episode will help you face your fears and step into your future. She’s been voted one of the most influential female entrepreneurs in Australia and is currently writing her first book. But before this chapter, she was working as a senior executive with a salary into the hundreds of thousands and like so many women before her, put her career before her own happiness.
Penny seemingly had it all. The corporate role and salary, the house, the cars and the holidays. And then one day, she got up and walked away from it all.
Why? Because she realised she wasn’t Being, she was just doing. So instead, she chose happiness. Both for herself, and hopefully by 2025, 10 million other people.
Thank you for being here.

Krista & Lindsey on influence in times of crisis, scaling a media business & vulnerability hangovers.
Dearest you.
An honest conversation with co-founders of Almost 30, Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik.
Almost 30 is one of the world’s most top-rated lifestyle podcasts for women. Krista and Lindsey started Almost 30 in a wardrobe with a voice recorder in 2016 and today, tour the world to connect with their community, #Almost30Nation. They also educate on the business of podcasting through the incredible Your Podcast Pro.
In this honest conversation, Krista and Lindsey open up across a range of topics related to starting and scaling a digital business, including the more nuanced aspects of growth like how they think about their influence in times of crisis, creating in service to their business vs. creating for personal gain, the things they consider when sharing their unique world-views, vulnerability hangovers and how they create authentically in a world that almost demands us to be strategic.

Alison on dealing with toxic co-workers, stepping up as a leader & how to ask for a payrise.
Dearest you.
To celebrate International Women’s Day (IWD) on March 8, I'm answering questions sent in by you — Offline’s cherished community of listeners.
IWD exists to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women, but in my eyes, it also celebrates the work so many women do each and everyday to support our collective advancement.
One of the many ways we can advance the women around us is by sharing our knowledge, and this episode is dedicated to doing just that. I give advice across a range of topics including stepping up as a leader, dealing with toxic co-workers, raising your frequency, finding a job after being made redundant, asking for a pay rise, maintaining your financial independence, the one thing founders need to do in order to scale their businesses and how to be your True Self on social media. I also address the discrimination many women face when it comes to pursuing their career or starting a family.
I hope this episode leaves you feeling empowered and supported. Remember: informed, kind and compassionate women are unstoppable. And when it comes to achieving social, economic and cultural equality, we’re all in it together.
Please note: I am offering my advice and opinion. It’s important that you consult the people you trust the most before making any decisions.
Thank you for being here.
