NEW SEASON: This Moment in Time
We are undoubtedly living through a pretty crazy time. Between geopolitics, climate change and AI, our world is rapidly changing. For good. We all feel it.
Join Lisa Corduff for a brand new conversation about this moment in time and the tensions, challenges, opportunities and beauty it presents.
Could this period of disruption be the perfect time for creating the kind of change we really want - for our planet and our people?
Big uncomfortable change is here... it's happening. And it's inescapable.
So how do we stay solid, informed and engaged, whilst milking all the goodness we can from this precious life?
Welcome to the conversation about This Moment in Time.

You know that feeling when you're scrolling through social media and everything starts to look... the same? AI-generated captions, templated posts, marketing formulas that feel about as authentic as a plastic rose? Yeah, me too. And it's exactly why I'm on my soapbox today about something I'm ridiculously passionate about: the absolute game-changing power of storytelling. In this Lisa Bytes episode, I'm sharing why story isn't just nice-to-have content filler - it's the secret weapon that cut...
Sometimes the most important conversations happen in the most unexpected places. In this episode, I'm sharing insights from a recent Ethics Center membership gathering that left me thinking about the massive shifts happening right under our noses - and why it's so important to be having conversations about them now. From the collapse of trust in our post-reality world to the looming job disruption that's closer than we think, this episode dives into the uncomfortable truths about where ...
What happens when the skill you've spent decades perfecting becomes obsolete overnight? In this refreshingly honest conversation, I sit down with my long-time mate Karly Nimmo - a voiceover agency owner who's watching her entire industry disappear thanks to AI. This isn't your typical "AI is scary" conversation. It's a real-world look at what's happening RIGHT NOW to creative professionals, and what it means for all of us as we navigate this unprecedented shift in how we work and live. What W...
Sometimes the most important conversations are the ones we avoid having. In this deeply personal Lisa Bytes episode, I'm sharing something that's been weighing on my heart - the collective grief we're all moving through right now, and why learning to acknowledge and process it might be one of the most important skills we can develop for what's ahead. After living through Melbourne's world-record lockdowns and my own journey with grief after Nick's death, I've started to recognise that familia...
Ever feel like the world is falling apart but you're still worried about what to make for dinner? There's actually a term for that, and it might just blow your mind. In this Lisa Bytes episode, I'm sharing a concept that helped me understand not just my own past behavior, but what feels like our entire collective experience right now. Spoiler alert: we're all doing it, and once you see it, you can't unsee it. What You'll Discover: The term "hyper-normalisation" and why it explains SO much abo...
When my son came home from school and told me the smartest kids in his class were discussing future careers had decided (smartly!) on being carpenters because "AI can't build houses yet," I knew we needed to talk about what this unique time means for our boys. So I sat down with Mikey Ellis - a friend whose work is crucially important - especially now. He curates men's circles and has a deep understanding and passion for working with our boys'. We dive into the big questions: Should we be wor...
Recently I saw something that stopped me in my tracks. A super smart business owner friend shared her success with AI-generated professional photos - they looked incredible, saved her thousands of dollars, and solved a massive problem that so many of us face. Hundreds of people wanted to know how she did it. Of course! It's expensive, time-consuming and a big fat cringe-fest for many of us to get professional headshots taken. Problem = solved. BUT it also got me thinking about what happens wh...
This conversation completely reframed how I think about the future. Lynn Casey is a futurist who works with companies like Mattel, Meta, YouTube, and Target, and she just got back from Stanford where she heard something from Gen Z students that blew my mind. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by all the change happening around us, I walked away from this chat genuinely excited about what's coming next. Lynn helped me see that while we're panicking about problems, there's an entire generation step...
In this episode, I'm addressing the elephant in the room: the uncertainty many of us feel about the massive changes happening in our world right now. This isn't about scaring anyone (promise!), but about finding ways to stay anchored when everything feels like it's shifting. From conversations with my teenage son about which careers might still exist in the future, to what I learned about staying grounded during my husband's recovery journey, I'm sharing my concept of a "daily prayer" - not i...
1Have you noticed how everyone seems to be talking about emergency preparedness lately? In this episode, I'm sharing what happened when I discovered the EU is recommending citizens keep three days of supplies on hand - and what that made me realize about my own (lack of) practical life skills! From my adventures in building veggie planter boxes despite not knowing the difference between nails and screws, to confronting my identity as a "non-handy" person, I'm taking you along on my journey of ...
Until last year, I thought AI was just fake images and robots! But I saw it starting to infiltrate my industry and took a stand against fakery. But then after a confronting dinner party conversation, I realised I needed to catch up FAST. In this episode, I'm taking you along on my journey of discovery as I break down the AI basics in plain English - no tech speak, I promise! Think of this as your "I don't want to sound clueless at dinner parties" guide to what's happening with AI right now. A...
In this episode, I share a mind-blowing conversation with an Uber driver that perfectly captures why we need to be talking about these massive changes happening in our world RIGHT NOW. This super-informed guy could talk for days about geopolitics and the "inevitable" collapse of civilisations, but completely dismissed climate change as a separate issue. Classic! But here's the thing - these massive disruptive forces aren't happening in isolation. The train has left the station on both climate...
In this first episode of the new season, I'm sharing why THIS conversation matters right NOW - this strange intersection of climate disruption and technological revolution we're all living through. From my days as a high school debater to creating sustainability TV shows to now navigating single motherhood, I've always been drawn to the big conversations. And right now? We're facing some of the biggest shifts of our lifetime. I take you through my journey of freaking out about our climate rea...
