Working For Progress
Welcome to Working For Progress with social entrepreneur Dani Trudeau. This podcast is all about real conversations with real people who are shaping their working lives in meaningful ways. From the heart of Tribe Porty and beyond, Dani connects with guests whose stories reflect the grit, passion, and purpose behind the work they do.
Through candid and thoughtful interviews, you’ll hear about career journeys that inspire, challenge, and reveal the quiet truths of our shared human experience. Each conversation starts with simple pleasures, winds through tough jobs and daring decisions, and lands in those unforgettable moments of flow and awe.
We’re all working for progress—within ourselves, for each other, and for a better world.

Working For Progress with Briana Pegado
Today we spoke with Briana Pegado, and we could have talked all day! With our longest episode to date, Briana and I talk about her experiences in the creative sector, how she is a menace (in the best possible way) and why it is important to live your truth. We think you will enjoy this rich conversation.
Briana Pegado FRSA is an author, fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, and festival founder with nearly a decade’s experience as an award- winning social entrepreneur in the creative industries in Scotland. She works as an anti-racism, governance, and strategy consultant particularly in the creative industries. She has an MA Sustainable Development and is a trained Theta DNA Energy Healer. She is the former Co-Director of We Are Here Scotland, Creative Director of Fringe of Colour Films, OMOS Community Engagement Producer, and Director of Creative Edinburgh.
She is a member of the Collective Scotland, an intersectional feminist social policy and research collective. A central theme in her work is how disrupting systems, processes, sectors, and ways of thinking can facilitate positive change. Her new book Make Good Trouble: A Guide to the Energetics of Disruption launches on 09 April 2024 and is available for pre-order now.
Working For Progress is hosted by Dani Trudeau and produced by Alice Hudson.
