  • Championing Change: From Courtrooms to Safe Spaces with Sharon Levy
    Oct 11 2025

    In this powerful episode of The Voice of Warriors, host Jo Cooper sits down with Sharon Levy, trailblazing lawyer, advocate, and founder of The Haven Nepean Women’s Shelter.


    Together, they reflect on Sharon’s journey into law, the landmark case that changed strata laws, and the emotional reality behind a years-long legal battle. Sharon opens up about her motivation to establish The Haven, the profound impact it has had on women and children affected by domestic violence, and the ongoing challenges of sustaining frontline support services.


    Their conversation goes beyond the courtroom, exploring the importance of community action, the unique challenges faced by women in the legal profession, and the world today, how recognition through awards can elevate critical social causes.


    This episode is both a tribute and a rallying call, reminding us that lasting change is built through courage, leadership, and collective action. Sharon’s vision for a future where shelters like The Haven are no longer needed will stay with you long after the episode ends.

  • Marketing Maverick, Dani Tillett on Courage, Creativity & Staying True To Her Values
    Sep 3 2025

    In this episode of The Voice of Warriors, Jo Cooper sits down with Dani Tillett, founder of The Ripe Idea, a marketing and PR agency born from both resilience and rebellion.


    Dani’s journey began in her family’s mortgage business before she carved out a bold career in PR and marketing. After 17 years in agencies, she had seen it all, workplace bullying, pregnancy discrimination. Labelled “difficult” for speaking up and refusing to stay silent, Dani faced an industry rife with ego and toxicity. But instead of letting those experiences break her, she chose to build something better.


    That choice gave birth to The Ripe Idea, an agency rooted in integrity, connection, and creativity. The name itself symbolises timing and transformation: ripe because the moment was right, and a butterfly in the logo representing Dani’s own metamorphosis. Just as a butterfly’s struggle strengthens its wings, Dani’s challenges gave her the strength to fly on her own terms.


    Together, Jo and Dani unpack the realities of self-doubt, imposter syndrome, motherhood, and the future of PR in a rapidly changing landscape. This is an unfiltered conversation about courage, growth, and the warrior spirit required to build a business, and a life, grounded in authenticity.
