In this episode of Wine After Work, I sit down with Andrea Kanaris, a social scientist, social impact professional, and founder of All Things Social Impact. Andrea’s story is one of resilience, reinvention, and purpose. From navigating toxic workplaces and a failed business to being made redundant at age 55, Andrea could have let those setbacks define her. Instead, she chose to design the future on her own terms building a platform that equips businesses and professionals with practical, actionable strategies to embed social responsibility and drive long-term value. Andrea shares: What it’s like to be first-generation Australian, one of eight siblings, and the daughter of immigrant parents with traditional expectations. The lessons she’s learned from navigating career challenges, undervaluation, and redundancy. How social impact work can move beyond compliance and become a true business asset. Why resilience, determination, and self-belief are the foundation of any successful career journey. Andrea is also the author of A Practical Guide to Social Impact Assessment for the Real World and host of a YouTube channel where she sparks important conversations with early- and mid-career professionals about the ups and downs of professional life. Tune in and be inspired by Andrea’s story of perseverance, impact, and the power of designing a career on your own terms.
