#72 Not Just Pronouns: Making Inclusion Real with Magda Stęga.

Endeavour

In this episode of the GROWTH Schema podcast, we sit down with the brilliant and unapologetically authentic Magda Stega, an internationally recognized inclusion strategist, TEDx speaker, and Forbes Women Top 25 Influencer. Magda opens up about her personal journey of transitioning from man to woman, confronting deep-rooted stigma, navigating judgment, and ultimately arriving at a place of self-acceptance, self-love, and deep respect.

We explore what inclusion really looks like—beyond buzzwords and policies—and how organizations can create cultures that truly support trans visibility and psychological safety. Magda shares her insights on building bridges between corporate change management and lived experiences, weaving in her vibrant global perspective and passion for cultural immersion.

This is a vulnerable, honest, and deeply empowering conversation about identity, courage, and what it means to be fully seen. Whether you’re curious about allyship, leading inclusively, or simply expanding your view of what personal growth looks like—this episode will stay with you.

We also touch on the power of language, making inclusion actionable, and how to turn awareness into impact—because as Magda reminds us, safety is not a nice-to-have—it’s foundational.
