Description

We’re living in an age of acceleration, algorithmic influence, artificial intelligence and endless optimisation. It’s officially time to ask ourselves the real questions:


When you're sitting in your True Self, who are you?

How do you want to live?

What feels true for you now?

And what are you no longer willing to sacrifice in pursuit of someone else’s definition of success?


Hosted by evolutionary career, business and leadership mentor Alison Rice, Offline, The Podcast is a home for honest conversations about the inner work required to build sovereign, values-led lives, careers and businesses in an era shaped by algorithms and intelligent machines.


Alongside world-builders, creatives, deep thinkers and founders, Alison explores identity, belonging, restorative ambition and the wisdom that emerges when you step out of performance and back into your truth — the birthplace of your very own little, rich life.

Dearest you.This conversation with my friend, peer and fellow world-builder, Alex Taylor, has been 10 years in the making. We first met in our Who What Wear days — two young leaders shaping the same brand world from opposite sides of the world.A decade later, Alex is the co-founder of Perelel Health, one of the most politically influential women’s health companies in the US with advocacy reaching all the way to the White House. This episode explores the parts of the founder journey that aren’t spoken about enough. The quiet questioning, the real costs, the faith required before investors and customers believe in what you're building.Together we explore:How a brand earns the right to advocateBuilding community from scratchThe tension between vision and viabilityHolding the mission before the market believes in youNavigating 100+ investor “no’s” while staying devoted to the workFeminine power, relational power and community power in leadershipHow our seasons as women shape the way we leadWhy founders need boundaries, privacy and an inner life of their ownThe evolution of digital intimacy and brand world-building todayThis is a conversation for founders, creators and builders who are quietly carrying the weight of their vision and looking for a reminder that they’re not alone. It’s also an invitation to rethink what modern leadership can be when it’s grounded in truth and generosity.Alison xogo deeper.Watch on YouTubeLittle, Rich Life WorkbookWhatsApp Community1-1 SessionBusiness ProgramAlison's Instagram & Substack Hosted on Acast.

Dearest you.Are you sitting with a desire to become something or someone entirely new? To evolve your professional or personal expression in the most unlikely, bold way?Maybe, like my guest Ruby Jean Cottle, you want to become a published author. Or maybe you’re an accountant who wants to become an artist. Or a leader who longs to be led again.I hope this episode inspires you to take intentional action in the direction of who and what Nature is wanting you to become. I hope it affirms the quiet knowing that you’re ready to leap into the life you’ve been longing for.Ruby and I trace her journey from multi-hyphenate creative and mother of two navigating “work” while living with endometriosis, to becoming a published author of Black River — a young adult fantasy novel she wrote before she ever had an agent or a book deal.This is a conversation for anyone holding a creative dream inside them, wondering if they’ll ever feel ready.Alison xogo deeper.Watch on YouTubeLittle, Rich Life WorkbookWhatsApp Community1-1 SessionBusiness ProgramAlison's Instagram & Substack Hosted on Acast.

Dearest you. If you’re an OG Offline Angel, you'll remember my first conversation about Human Design back in 2019 (listen here). Six years on and I'm feeling pulled back into this intricate knowledge system, this time through the lens of career and business building.I'm thrilled to be joined by Human Design expert and portfolio career strategist, Julie Fedele, for an honest conversation about learning to trust and interpret the energetic signals already alive in our bodies — the ones we so often ignore.

Dearest you. What does it mean to become the condition for the world so many of us are longing for?In this honest conversation, teacher, author, activist and US presidential candidate, Marianne Williamson, invites us to stop waiting for change and instead begin to live as progressive agents of love and right action in the here and now. Your personal awakening is what will fuel system and political change.We also explore how activism can be rooted in compassion rather than contempt and how as female leaders, we can soften without surrendering our strength. She speaks candidly about the lessons, heartbreaks and growth that emerged from her presidential campaign which I'm really grateful for, offering rare insight into the courage and forgiveness that has been required. Marianne is bringing her talk Inner Light, Outer Change to Australian in February.

Dr. Shefali also shares her perspective on technology, cultural conditioning and how parents and leaders can return to wholeness so that our children feel safe to do the same.This is a conversation about redefining success, resisting cultural lies and guiding our children to know who they really are.

Dearest you.Welcome to part two of my honest conversation with founder of McMullin, Alice McMullin. In part one, we traversed the tensions and complexities we carry as mothers, founders, business owners and creatives. Here in part two, we get into the business and community building bits. We discuss what thoughtful scale looks like for a brand built upon restraint and intentionality, and we even have a mini strategy session that I suspect might evolve into something quite special for both of our brands. Alison xogo deeper.Watch on YouTubeLittle, Rich Life WorkbookWhatsApp Community1-1 SessionBusiness ProgramAlison's Instagram & Substack Hosted on Acast.

Dearest you.Alice McMullin is the founder and creative director of McMullin, an Australian furniture studio founded upon the principle of simple, considered, timeless and sustainable design.I had no less than 20 questions ready for Alice, but it turns out I didn’t need them. We didn’t need them. This, to me, is the sign of an honest conversation. It’s something that unfolds. Two people who trust each other enough to go where they’re being led.We had a very long chat so I’m running this conversation in two parts.

Dearest you.This episode is for everyone but it’s most especially for the conscious builders, makers, creators, service providers, founders, freelancers (or soon-to-be because I know you’re thinking about it and yes, I think you should!), business owners and leaders.It’s for those who want to stay true in a world that increasingly feels false. Pre-generated. Automated. Streamlined. Optimised. Without soul.We are being asked to build, create, serve and lead in a time of massive technological change. Artificial intelligence is no longer on the horizon. It’s here in the room with us and as much as we might want to avoid it because of what it could mean for humanity, the highest call right now as awake and aware individuals is to turn towards it fully, allow ourselves to stretch to its edges and see what we discover there. Join me.Alison xoAccess the Being In Right Relationship With Artificial Intelligence Workbook herego deeper.Watch on YouTubeLittle, Rich Life WorkbookWhatsApp Community1-1 SessionBusiness ProgramAlison's Instagram & Substack Hosted on Acast.

Dearest you. The best episodes are the conversations where I don’t ask any of the questions I had on my list. This is one of them.Megan deBoer is a wealth doula, mother, maker and caretaker. In this episode we explore what it looks like and feels like to land in our innate deservingness. What does that mean? It means closing the gap between what we're currently receiving and what we intrinsically deserve.

Genuinely in love with this podcast, the realness of the host and her guests, feels like you're having a conversation with them in your own home. Being a millennial, I've followed if not all of her guests and now have even more admiration for these women and what they do. It's not a podcast glorifying social media, nor stabbing it in the back, just having open discussions about their struggles. They're not apologetic about it, each women is so strong in so many ways, and it's the fucking best!
