Jade Gani: Law Firm Founder, Purpose-Driven Leader, and Advocate for Change | Season Two Episode Six

Season 2 · Episode 14

Wednesday, May 7, 2025 • Duration 48:55

Disclaimer:

This episode contains discussions of sensitive topics, including child sexual abuse, domestic abuse, and chronic illness. Listener discretion is advised. If you or someone you know is affected by these issues, support resources are available.

In this episode of The U-Triumph Podcast, I had the absolute honour of speaking with Jade Gani - Founder, CEO and Head of Private Client at Circe Law, and one of the most purpose-driven leaders I’ve had the pleasure of meeting.

Jade’s story is about much more than building a successful career. It’s a testament to courage, resilience, and using your experiences, no matter how painful, to drive positive change. Raised in challenging circumstances marked by poverty, chronic illness, and trauma, Jade defied the odds to carve out a remarkable career in law and build her own firm grounded in compassion, fairness, and empowerment.

Here are just a few of the powerful moments we explored together:

🌟 The journey from a state school and adversity to founding an award-winning law firm

📚 Turning a 2:2 degree into a thriving legal career through grit, life experience, and purpose

🤝 Why creating opportunity for others has become Jade’s proudest achievement

🎙️ The impact of values-led leadership, and how true change requires more than tokenism

Jade’s journey proves that your start doesn’t define your future, but the impact you make on others absolutely does.

Denise Myers: Recruitment Leader, Confidence Builder, and Awards Founder | Season Two Episode Five

Season 2 · Episode 13

Monday, April 7, 2025 • Duration 48:50

✨Some people wait until they’ve “made it” to give back. Denise Myers never waited.

In this episode of The U-Triumph Podcast, I sat down with the unstoppable Founder of Evenfields Careers, Evenfields Community, and the Black Talent Awards - three platforms built not just to celebrate talent, but to elevate it.

Denise didn’t set out to be a recruiter, a founder, or a changemaker. But after seeing how biased and broken recruitment systems could be - especially for people from Black and ethnic minority backgrounds - she decided to stop waiting for someone else to fix it.

And she’s been building better ever since.

In our conversation, we spoke about:

🔍 Challenging bias and “culture fit” in recruitment practices 💥 The emotional weight of being underemployed - and the power of rebuilding confidence 🏆 The vision behind the Black Talent Awards, and why recognition can be revolutionary 💡 What it means to create not just access, but safe, empowering spaces to thrive

Denise’s journey is about grit, purpose, and a refusal to let others define your limits. But more than that - it’s about how ordinary people can create extraordinary change when they choose to lead with impact.

🎤 What does it take to bring joy to others while building a lasting legacy?

In Episode 4 of The U-Triumph Podcast Season 2, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Miles Crawford - comedian, presenter, and founder of Joke Club Comedy Clubs. With decades in the entertainment industry, Miles has performed on some of the biggest stages, supported legends like Luther Vandross, and worked behind the scenes on some of the UK's most iconic TV shows.

But what intrigued me most about Miles’ journey is that his success has never just been about himself. Through his comedy, mentoring, and entrepreneurship, he has dedicated his career to uplifting others—whether by making audiences laugh, creating spaces for up-and-coming talent, or helping individuals build confidence in their own voices.

Here are a few highlights from our conversation:

🙌 Overcoming setbacks and using life’s challenges as fuel for success

🛠 The art of mentorship - helping others refine their stage presence, public speaking, and confidence

🎭 The impact of comedy - how laughter can be a powerful tool for connection and change

Miles' story is a brilliant example of what Being the Ladder truly means - using his journey not just to climb, but to create pathways for others to rise alongside him.

Season 1 · Episode 6

Tuesday, April 2, 2024 • Duration 56:16

Rice & Peas and Fish & Chips

I was recently joined by Pauline Campbell, a pioneering black British lawyer and published author, for my latest episode of the U-Triumph Podcast series.

During our conversation, Pauline shared her extraordinary journey of climbing the ladder. Set amidst the backdrop of 1960s London, rife with racism and discrimination, Pauline's story emerges as a testament to resilience, determination, and unwavering advocacy.

From her formative years battling low expectations in school, to embarking on a late pursuit of a law degree while balancing a full-time job: Pauline's path to success was strewn with obstacles.

Yet, she triumphed, crafting an award-winning career and becoming a beacon of hope for marginalised communities, notably the Windrush generation.

She is an extraordinary example of being the ladder, from her pivotal role as chair of her organisation's race equality network to her relentless advocacy for Windrush victims.

During our conversation we also dove into the persistent challenges of racism, sexism, and social mobility plaguing the legal profession, underscoring the imperative for systemic change.

I hope you enjoy listening to this conversation with Pauline, as much as I enjoyed speaking with her.
