Kyle Leong wants more mob talking about money and making money! 

The Koko-bera man from the small Aboriginal community of Kowanyama was born and raised on Turrabal/Jaggera land and now lives on Giabal/Jarowair land with his 3 children and his wife. 

Kyle is also the Senior Manager for Retail Banking Services (RBS) Indigenous Engagement for Commonwealth Bank where he is responsible for the recruitment and retention of Indigenous employees and has recently launched a pilot program that gives mob the knowledge and skills to take control of their finances. 

If someone knows a thing or two about hiring mob and financial literacy, it’s this fulla!

This week we sat down and had a yarn with Kyle about the steps businesses can take to ensure they’re doing the right kind of work when engaging with First Nations people. We also talk about how central financial literacy is to changing intergenerational outcomes for all Indigenous people.

Hosted by Mundanara Bayles who was born and raised in Redfern (Sydney) Australia and currently lives in Queensland. The Black Magic Woman Podcast is an uplifting conversational style program featuring mainly First Nations people from Australia and around the world sharing their stories about their journey to highlight the diversity amongst First Nations peoples and the resilience of her people. She hopes these stories inspire her listeners and also create a better understanding of what First Nations Peoples culture and history.



Mundanara is guided by Aboriginal Terms of Reference and focusses more on who people are rather than on what they do. Mundanara makes people feel relaxed and comfortable as if they were sitting around the kitchen table just having a yarn. It’s the way First Nations people have been building relationships and getting to know each other for tens of thousands of years. She draws from a long family history in the media industry and has grown up in culturally strong, politically active family who have been at the forefront of the Aboriginal Rights movement since the 1960’s.



Mundanara sees this platform as an opportunity to share her cultural knowledge and insights to her audience in a non confrontational way that brings people along with her to create change for a better Australia. To connect more with Mundanara check out the work she does with her elders at www.theblackcard.com.au.
