The Story

Gemma Manning built her career starting and scaling global companies, and here she makes the case that business doesn't have to be cut-throat or impersonal. Business the Heart Way explores what happens when you run one with kindness, empathy and authenticity instead. Each episode is an interview with an entrepreneur or business leader, and it's aimed at founders who suspect there's a better way to work.

The topics stay practical: building and scaling consumer brands, nurturing the next generation of entrepreneurs, women in leadership, doing business with heart in Southeast Asia. Gemma's background spans strategic marketing, entrepreneurship education and international business, which shows in the questions she asks. Episodes run about 50 minutes and land roughly once a month, with nine published since February 2024 and around seven hours of listening so far. Find it on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
