A special episode. Josh discusses seven lessons from our first seven episodes and speaking with seven extraordinary professionals from across industries and the world.
From a CEO who started as an intern, to someone who worked with Nelson Mandela, to an engineer who crawled through naval ships in the Falklands just six weeks into her graduate programme … our first seven guests couldn’t have been more different.
Themes emerged. And in this episode, Josh brings those to life.

Josh Mackenzie hosts Graduate Edge, a podcast for people early in their career. He’s spent years working with thousands of young professionals worldwide and the hundreds of companies they work for. What he’s learned: the most successful people aren’t the ones who had it all figured out – they’re the ones who learned from the messy, uncertain moments along the way.
In each episode, Josh talks with people who’ve navigated early career challenges and lived to tell the tale. They dig into the pivotal moments, the failures that hurt, the career crossroads where the “right” path wasn’t obvious, how they found success, and the real lessons that only come from actually doing the work. But here’s what makes it different: Josh pulls their stories apart to uncover what they actually mean for you, and the concrete advice you can use right now.
Whether you’re figuring out your first professional job, navigating a major transition, or just trying to make sense of this whole “being a professional” thing, this is your space to learn from people who’ve walked the path before you – without the highlight reel, just the honest truth.
