Always Meet Your Heroes

Alison Newman is a singer, songwriter, podcaster and mum of 2 boys from regional South Australia. She has been singing and performing since the age of 5 and, for the last 14 years, has been juggling her career with being a mum. This is a topic that really interests me personally, as my wife and I are soon to become parents! In this episode, we discussed the challenges of becoming a parents, including post-natal depression and 'mum-guilt', how to balance becoming a parent with a career and a life outside of parenting, as well as what it is like to parent in the 21st century, with the minefield of social media and technology! Whether you are a parent or not, this episode is a fascinating insight into life as a parent, which you, or someone close to you, will need at some point!

#013 - Pip Stewart on Life Lessons From The Amazon

Pip Stewart is an adventurer, journalist and author who I came across a few months ago when I discovered and started reading her book - Life Lessons From The Amazon. I love the book and really wanted to talk to Pip about her adventures and what she has learned from them. I loved this conversation and Pip was definitely one of the most easy to talk to people I have ever spoken to, which made the interview so great! In the episode, we discuss how and why Pip got into some of her incredible adventures, including cycling from Malaysia to London and kayaking Guyana’s biggest river, what life lessons she has learnt along the way which we can all apply to our own lives, as well as the sustainability impacts of tourism, of our everyday consumption and the moral and ethical impacts of traveling. A really interesting conversation and I’m very grateful for Pip for chatting with me! If you haven’t read her book Life Lessons From The Amazon, I definitely think you should go grab a copy (you can find it here!).
