 Welcome to the (un)conversations podcast with your host Dr. Alison—where comfort zones get left behind. This isn’t the show for playing it safe. Each episode brings you real, raw, and (un)scripted conversations with global CxOs, founders, and influential industry leaders who challenge norms, break barriers, and redefine leadership on their own terms. A signature moment in every episode? One unique part of every episode is my brainchild experience of The (UN)word Effect—where guests choose three words beginning with “UN” that hold deep personal, professional, and leadership significance.Dr. Alison Schmidt, CEO of Unconvention 経済学
