What happens when a teenage mum becomes a PhD-holding gender equality commissioner responsible for over 300 organisations and nearly half a million workers? You get Dr. Niki Vincent — a quiet revolutionary whose life's work has been to transform the systems that hold inequality in place.
In this episode of Chasing Financial Equality, Dr. Vincent joins Kane Jackson to unpack how personal struggle becomes political insight, how to drive institutional change with both compassion and compliance powers, and why data only matters if it leads to action.
From dismantling discrimination in police forces to reshaping public sector policy across Victoria, Niki reveals the hard truths about systemic bias — and how the Gender Equality Act is forcing organisations to face them. Together they explore why gender equity is not just an ethical obligation, but a structural redesign issue that intersects with finance, class, race and power.
Expect practical insights, moving personal stories, and an inspiring call to make equality not a side project — but business as usual.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
