Be The Drop

In episode 277, I reflect on the work that I have done in 2021 to give myself the gift of Joy - and as my Christmas gift to you, I share some tips on how you can do the same. I talk about the conscious decision and work that I have done in order to better understand what is that I need to do more of, or less of, in order to feel more connected to joy. To continue with the theme of giving, I am also joined at the end of this episode by Suzanne Thompson who shares her incredible gift with you - via a meditation for you to give yourself time, to feel and release any frustrations in order to better tap into your joy.

In episode 276, I’m very excited to welcome back Chris Warman. Well actually, we recorded this episode before he left but are releasing now as he celebrates his role as new Dad to baby Patricia. Throughout our documentary series, Transcending The Gender Narrative we talked to many men about their desire to be more involved in their children’s lives and the barriers they have faced when trying to do this. Chris is about to embark on a journey as a stay at home Dad, so in this episode he discusses how he’s feeling and what factors weighed into this decision; in the aim to normalise parenting roles regardless of gender.

In episode 273, I’m joined by Fiona Mort, head of 1800RESPECT, the national helpline for sexual assault, domestic and family violence. Fiona discusses the barriers and challenges women must overcome in their journey to escape domestic violence, often for them and their children. Fiona also explains how lack of understanding and seemingly innocent questions such as “why doesn’t she just leave” underestimate the complexities of domestic violence and also shifts the blame from the perpetrator to the victims. We also discuss how the community can support the services required to help women and children in need.

In this episode, Chris shares some of the lessons he’s learned throughout our work journey, how an open mindset has helped him approach and solve problems plus he shares his most memorable Be The Drop episodes.

In episode 271, I am thrilled to speak with Moira Were AM who shares her extensive and practical advice on how we can evolve, shift or reshape, the systems that no longer serve us; the systems that are holding current inequalities in place. Moira draws insights from her different roles, as a Cultivator for Ethical Fields, Activator and Facilitator for SheEO, Founder of The Hen House Co-Op and Co-founder of Collab4Good. Moira provides tangible and achievable actions that we can individually take to be systems change makers, so that collectively we can make a difference.

In episode 270, I speak to Supt James Blandford about the frontline realities experienced through his work with SA Police, responding to domestic violence. Supt Blandford discusses the need for wider community understanding, the critical need to be informed and educated about the alarming rates of domestic violence within our community. On average, one woman a week is murdered by her current or former partner. These are incredibly alarming statistics that require concerted and collaborative action to address.
