Description

Working for Progress is a podcast about work, wellbeing, and what it means to live a meaningful life.


Hosted by social entrepreneur Dani Trudeau and rooted in the community of Tribe Porty in Edinburgh, each season explores a theme, The Body, through honest, unhurried conversations with people who are shaping their working lives with intention. These aren't interviews about career advice or productivity hacks. They're deeper conversations about values, identity, creativity, burnout, purpose, and the quiet grit behind the work people do.


If you love podcasts like On Being or The Pause, and you're asking bigger questions about how you want to work and live, this is for you.


Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and wherever you get your podcasts.
