Helen Parker - The Babes Project
Love thy Stranger
02/13/21 • 59 min
So... here is our very powerful conversation with The Babes Project founder and CEO Helen Parker - one of the most inspirational humans we've had the privilege of chatting with and whom we now call friend...
After facing her own crisis pregnancy at the age of 20 with limited support Helen established The Babes Project in 2009 with the goal of ensuring women had access to the help and care needed as they prepared for parenting.
Helen continues to run The Babes Project with a fierce determination to expand the organisation until every woman knows she can access support in her pregnancy.
Helen loves her coffee, time with girlfriends, cooking and family - but she has also been known to get onto Tik Tok and shake up a cocktail or two.
We love Helen, Babes Project and our chat; we invite you to listen in on the conversation and to support, partner and/or participate in the work of Babes!

Erin Boutros - Empty Esky
Love thy Stranger
06/23/20 • 34 min
Erin is the real deal; brilliant, inspiring and what I would call a “serial social entrepreneur” who has, in her short time on planet earth, already started two non-profits that are impacting and bringing transformation to individual lives, local business, economy and communities in this nation and in nations around the world.
We talk to Erin about how she began, what drives her and we hone in on her latest start up #emptyesky and it was a bunch of fun!
Erin is most definitely a practitioner of generous hospitality and her story is inspiring to say the least so sit back and enjoy our conversation...

Michael Stamboulidis - Rydges Hotel, World Square
Love thy Stranger
06/01/20 • 46 min
Michael Stamboulidis is, at the time of recording, the Hotel Manager of Rydges World Square in Sydney and is, in our humble opinion, one of the most passionate practitioners of hospitality we've come across.
It may sound like a huge claim but it's made after a chance encounter in one of the lifts and an outstanding personal experience with him while he was the Director of Food & Beverage at QT Melbourne.
Michael is wise beyond his years and his life-experience, so we know that you'll glean some profound insight and inspiration by leaning in on and listening to some of his story.
We are so thankful that you decided to drop-in on the conversation and look forward to having you along for the ride; if you like what you hear please rate, subscribe and share the podcast with your networks...

Serena O'Callaghan - Madam Woo
Love thy Stranger
10/15/20 • 73 min
Serena has been in the hospitality industry for around 15 years but embodies hospitality in all she is and all she does. She is the daughter of a real estate agent and a diplomat, and started her career as a host at TGI Fridays.
Serena has a 'way' with people which quickly garnered respect amongst her hospo peers, earned her a number of professional accolades and made way for many growth opportunities and leadership roles within the industry including managing the iconic Melbourne cocktail bar - 1806 - under the supervision and tutelage of industry legend and mentor Sebastian Raeburn, Jungle Boy, Tommy Collins, Employees Only and most recently with Merivale.
All the world truly is a stage for Serena who oozes creativity; whether she finds herself behind a mic, a bar, a coffee machine or in front of a camera, in the gym and even in an orchard - which became evident in-and-through one of her most recent iso projects - @madamwoosgoodstuff - an experimental kitchen that was birthed during lockdown after she was gifted car loads of beautiful fruit and produce during a stint on a fruit farm with her mate Jimmy!
There is so much to this human that you can probably expect a follow up episode down the road because I'm not sure we scratched the surface but it was such a privilege and pleasure to begin...

Sarah Cook - Movement Zone Dance Studio II XtremeInc Youth Projects
Love thy Stranger
09/29/20 • 56 min
Sas grew up in Castlemaine and at an early age shone as a gymnast and dancer and after studying full time dance in Melbourne and after a car accident, she decided to return to her hometown and established Movement Zone.
This passion for teaching was not only confined to the Dance Studio but has extended out into the community and evolved into producing different programs, choreographing works & events for youth, working with different organisations and thousands of young people in Schools all over Australia. In 2005 & 2006 Sarah headed to the Kimberly s, touring for a month at a time in remote Indigenous Communities training & choreographing for their annual Croc Festival.
It was through Movement Zone that Sarah took part in the first To The Xtreme festival, showcasing dance, skating and music which has become an annual event that now includes scooters, parkour, BMX, street art, music, djing, circus performance and more. It was from this first event that inspired her to set up the organisation XtremeInc Youth Projects, back in 2009.
Today as XtremeInc's and MZ Director, she continue's to work with young people in developing various programs and initiatives and, having built this in Castlemaine, her goal is to take this further around regional Victoria.
"I want to train others, to pass the torch, and ensure young people carry on this work. It s successful because it s happened organically. It hasn t come from government, but the community." Sas Cook.
