Sukany4 - The Podcast
A UK based walking and talking business podcast! Sukany4-The Podcast is a recorded outdoors while walking through parks, streets, lakes and community spaces.
Hosted by Sukanya, this podcast blends business conversations, community stories and wellbeing, all while moving side by side. Each episode features founders, leaders, creatives and community builders sharing real, candid conversations about business, work, purpose, growth and connection while walking in nature or local places that matter to them.
If you enjoy podcasts to listen to while walking, Sukany4-The Podcast is designed for you. The walking format creates relaxed, grounded conversations you do not get in a studio. Think less performance, more presence. Less hustle chat, more real life business stories.
You will hear:
• Small business and entrepreneurial journeys
• Leadership, values and decision making
• Community building and social impact
• Wellbeing, balance and life beyond work
• The power of walking and talking for better conversations
This is a business podcast you can walk to, whether you are walking the dog, heading out on your lunch break, hiking in the Lakes or just needing a change of pace from screen based content.
Sukany4 The Podcast sits at the intersection of business, community and wellbeing, proving that some of the best conversations happen when we slow down, step outside and walk together.

In this episode of Sukany4 – The Podcast, I take a springtime walk through Lancaster’s beautiful canal paths and into the peaceful Fairfield Nature Reserve with designer and creative business owner, Anna Douglas.
We're soon we’re swapping stories about life, creativity, and change. Anna shares how she transitioned from fashion design to branding and web design, sparked by a moment of realisation during lockdown and a redundancy that turned out to be the push she needed.
We talk about falling back in love with Lancaster after time away, her experience setting up Creative Women’s Dinners to build connection and community, and the joy of creating spaces that feel welcoming, without the pressure to pitch. She tells me why she embraces tools like Canva, how she navigates client relationships, and why she avoids fast design trends in favour of timeless, intentional branding.
There’s laughter, stories of travel and yoga teacher training, reflections on mindful living, AI, and yes, plans for her upcoming wedding and a nod to the film Ghost (you’ll understand when you hear it).
This is an episode full of honesty, creativity, and thoughtful conversation. A slow and sunny walk with a wonderfully warm guest who reminds us that sometimes, the best ideas come from allowing ourselves to pause, play, and begin again.
