The Truth Is...
We're Talking Work & Real-Life Sh*t
𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩 𝘐𝘴... is your no-BS guide to figuring out work AND life — because let’s be real, they’re way too connected to treat separately. Hosted by Natasha Bukhari (aka Tash), this podcast is all about the honest conversations we wish more people were having—about careers, leadership, identity, ambition, and everything in between.
Each episode brings you real stories, smart insights, and practical takeaways to help you navigate the working world without losing yourself in the process. From workplace drama to big career moves, setting boundaries to staying sane, we cover the stuff that actually matters (with guests who get it). We’re not here to pretend anyone has it all figured out. We’re here to keep it real, ask better questions, and maybe laugh a little along the way.
So if you’re trying to build a career AND a life that feels like yours, the truth is...you’re in the right place.
The Truth Is...
Talent Strategy Is Business Strategy with Sam Li
What do top-performing companies have in common?
A talent strategy that’s deeply aligned with their business goals.
In this episode, Tash is joined by Sam Li, Director of Talent Acquisition at Zenni Optical, to explore why hiring can’t be treated like a back-office function. From scaling teams across industries to navigating a challenging job market, Sam shares the behind-the-scenes realities of TA, offers advice for both employers and job seekers, and breaks down how to shift from reactive hiring to proactive planning.
And of course, it wouldn’t be The Truth Is… without a few hot takes and a rapid-fire round of True or False to close things out.
Because the truth is…talent strategy IS business strategy!
