Cultivate More Peace in Your Life with Alison Dunn

What does it take to lead with purpose and create real social change?

In this episode of the Peace is a Choice podcast, Natasha Wallace is joined by Alison Dunn, CEO of the Society Matters Group at Citizens Advice Gateshead.

Alison shares her inspiring journey from training in law to dedicating her career to social justice, driven by a deep sense of inequality and a desire to make systems fairer for everyone.

Together, they explore the power of mindset, the importance of community involvement, and why many of the inequities people face are rooted in structures, not individual shortcomings.

The conversation also delves into the impact of media narratives, the role of education and critical thinking in navigating societal issues, and how leaders can build healthier workplace cultures that support mental well-being.

Alison discusses the evolution of her own leadership style, the need for self-awareness, and why women must stand together to challenge systemic inequality. She also offers a preview of her upcoming book, Friend or Foe?, which uncovers the dynamics of female relationships and the vital role of women as allies.
