Welcome to REPRESENTED, the podcast.
This is your weekly dose of inspiration that’ll support you to build a racially inclusive online business without letting the fear of getting it wrong get in the way.

I’m Annie Gichuru, your host as well as a Racial Equity Coach who supports online business owners such as coaches, course creators, membership owners and group program facilitators. It’s my calling in nature and ability to break-down complex and often uncomfortable conversations around race that has seen me teach over 100 online business owners to be more racially inclusive through my online program REPRESENTED.
Be sure to subscribe, rate and review so this podcast can reach more online business owners and begin to not only normalise racial inclusion in the online coaching space but see us actively shift our perspectives.

100. The Long Game: A Milestone Conversation with Special Guest Host Jess Miller

This is episode 100 and if you've been here from the start, you know how much has shifted in the world, in this work and in this space since we first began. Today, the mic gets handed over to my dear friend and business strategist Jess Miller. She's been present for so much of the behind-the-scenes of this podcast and this work and so I'm turning the tables and she's interviewing me.
We're talking about the evolution of racial equity work in Australia, what it means to stay grounded in your values when the landscape gets challenging, the role of community, truth-telling and why showing up, even when the work is slow, is still the most powerful thing you can do. This is a conversation centred around legacy, leadership and the long game.
In this episode we cover:
- How the racial equity and DEI landscape in Australia has shifted over the past six years
- The impact of global politics on diversity, equity and inclusion work locally
- Why values-led business owners are still needed in this space, now more than ever
- The role of community in sustaining this work for the long term
- Truth-telling, misinformation and why education matters
- What it means to build an anti-racist, inclusive business with integrity
- Why showing up consistently, even in slow seasons, is the most powerful thing you can do
This episode is for you if you are:
- A coach, consultant or creative who wants to do business more equitably and inclusively
- A values-led business owner navigating the current DEI backlash
- Someone curious about racial equity work in Australia
- A woman of colour in business looking for community and honest conversation
