What does it mean to start over in a new country — and how do we find belonging while building a thriving career?
In this special episode of the Thrive Careers Podcast, Ola shares Letters Across Time — a live radio reenactment originally broadcast on Trent Radio for the Peter Robinson Bicentennial.
Through the voice of Brigid, an Irish settler in 1825, and Ola’s own journey as a newcomer in 2025, this story explores the timeless courage it takes to begin again. You’ll hear themes of immigrant resilience, career adaptation, and finding community that still resonate today.
Plus, stay tuned for a behind-the-scenes conversation on storytelling, identity, and how newcomers can own their stories to thrive in new environments and careers.
✨ Whether you’ve been here for generations or you just arrived yesterday, your story matters — and it’s worth celebrating.
