Future Builders!

Featuring: Nivanthi Reji
Educator | Careers Adviser | Industry Connector

Where Schools + Industry Unite to Build Tomorrow’s Workforce.

In this powerful episode of Future Force Live, host Pri is joined by renowned educator and careers adviser Nivanthi Reji to unpack one of the most urgent challenges facing our communities:
the disconnect between schools and industry.

With over a decade working across Sydney schools, Nivanthi shares real stories from the classroom—especially from low‑SES communities—highlighting how early industry exposure can transform student confidence, aspiration, and employability.

This episode isn’t just a conversation.
It’s a direct call to action for employers, industry leaders, and organisations to step into schools and help shape the future workforce—through mentoring, workplace exposure, conversations, and collaboration.

If you’re in industry and wondering how to build talent pipelines that actually work—this show is for you.

Reclaiming Your Narrative
Because you were never meant to live someone else’s story.

In this powerful and reflective episode, Pri invites all—especially those navigating midlife, identity shifts, and quiet reinvention—into a deeply grounding conversation about authorship, truth, and becoming.

So much of who we believe ourselves to be was shaped by expectations, survival, and roles we learned to perform. This episode gently explores what happens when that story no longer fits—and the courage it takes to acknowledge the whisper that says, “There’s more.”

Through thoughtful reflection and embodied insight, Pri unpacks:

• How we inherit stories that once kept us safe—but now keep us small
• The hidden cost of staying in a life that’s “good enough”
• Why permission rarely comes from outside us
• What it truly means to reclaim your narrative without burning everything down
• How to move with fear without letting it decide your future

This is not an episode about perfection, productivity, or dramatic change.
It’s about honesty. Alignment. Self‑permission.
And remembering that you are not the supporting character—you are the author.

🎧 A grounded, affirming listen for anyone ready to live with more integrity, intention, and internal consent.

Speak Your Truth – Money Stress & Mental Health

Money stress is one of the most common — and least openly discussed — pressures in our lives. In this episode of Speak Your Truth on Alive 90.5FM, host Pri Abayakoon is joined by trusted financial adviser Ashish (Ash) Thadani, Director of Investlink Group, for an honest and reassuring conversation about how finances affect our mental health.

Together, they unpack why money stress impacts sleep, confidence and relationships, explore the most common worries faced by Australian families, and share gentle mindset shifts and practical tools to reduce anxiety and break avoidance cycles.

This is not a “get rich quick” conversation. It’s a real, compassionate discussion designed to help listeners feel less alone, less ashamed, and more empowered — one small step at a time.

• Real talk.
• Practical tools.
• No judgement.

When My Father Speaks His Truth – Lessons Without a Blackboard

On this special episode of Speak Your Truth, I step out of the presenter’s chair and into something far more personal — a conversation with my father.

This is not an interview.
It is a reflection on a life shaped by service, learning, and love.

From a childhood guided by a principal father and a teacher mother, to a calling that led him into classrooms, curriculum writing, and education leadership both at home and abroad — including service in Seychelles and Botswana — this episode traces the journey of a man who believed deeply in the power of education to change lives.

We hear stories of love and partnership through more than fifty years of marriage to his beloved Anula, the values that anchored their home, and the quiet lessons passed on to three children. Beyond titles and achievements, this conversation reveals a man who lived with integrity, faith, and an unwavering sense of responsibility to family, community, and humanity.

As he reflects on retirement, legacy, and the principles that guided his life, this episode reminds us that the most powerful lessons are not always taught from a blackboard — they are lived, modelled, and passed on through generations.

This is a story of purpose.
A story of service.
And a daughter honouring the truth of the man who shaped her world.

Seaside Shift — Conversations That Move You
Episode: Coaching That Changes You: Identity, Action & Empowerment

What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t a lack of motivation—but an identity you’ve outgrown?

In this episode of Seaside Shift — Conversations That Move You, we sit down with Sydney‑based empowerment coach Sophie Lorre for an honest, practical conversation about what coaching really is, how it differs from therapy, and why so many high‑functioning women find themselves trapped in self‑limiting loops.

Together, we unpack identity, mindset, communication, neuroscience‑informed tools, and NLP—breaking down what actually happens inside a coaching session and how small internal shifts can create powerful, lasting change.

If you’ve been feeling “on” all the time, stretched thin, or quietly craving clarity and balance—this episode offers insight, language, and a gentle nudge forward.
