Working For Progress
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.
Working For Progress
Anna Considine on Brand Photography, Burnout, and Building a Business Around Your Values
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Dani speaks with Anna Considine. Edinburgh-based brand photographer, founder of Studio Gently, and new member of Tribe Porty, Anana talks about what it really takes to build a business that doesn't cost you your health.
Anna speaks openly about the joy of starting something of your own, and with equal honesty about what happened when work became all-consuming. Her experience of overworking led to a psychotic episode, a turning point that changed how she works, what she values, and the kind of spaces she now tries to create for her clients.
A raw, generous conversation about mental health, boundaries, and what it means to put your values at the centre of your work.
Please note: this episode includes an honest discussion of mental health and psychosis.
