Shaku is originally from India but based in the UK. She has many talents, from being a Holistic Massage Therapist, to a trained Laughing Yoga teacher and an Ecstatic Dance Meditation facilitator, a corporate office worker, let alone her degree in Commerce. She was based in India caring for her elderly mother at the time of this interview. Shaku ran away from home at a young age on a midnight train to Goa. She found lasting love in a slightly older Englishman, an ex-army officer and together they adopted a hippie lifestyle, of sacred Sadhus - travelling around the temples barefoot, dressed only in orange robes, sleeping in the wild forests, bathing in rivers for almost 6 years. The many strangers they met often taunted her as a prostitute because she was a young Indian girl accompanying a white man - but far from it, they soon married and would remain together for the remainder of his life. Shaku says, "Every day was its own new story". They walked the Himalayan mountains by night to cross the border into Nepal, where Shaku found a job teaching English to young children in a Christian school. Their next adventure was to visit her husband's country, England, where they purchased an old VW campervan with plans to drive it from London across western Europe, to Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan into India and finally reach Kathmandu. In no rush, many stories unfolded, until one night tragedy struck when her husband went missing, to later be found as the victim of a terrible road accident. Bereft, Shaku returned to London where she took up employment as a nanny. "What gave me strength was having lived that life in India as a Sadhu, a simplistic lifestyle learning to let go." Hear more about Shaku in this interview as she takes us through some of her many adventures.

Aysu Fevziye Cogur is a musician-singer- songwriter of Turkish descent but born and raised in Melbourne/Australia and currently residing in Andalucia/Spain. In this episode Aysu shares with us some of her recent experience volunteering in Hatay/Turkey with the non-government-organization Solidarity Respect & Protect (SRP) who are working on the ground offering humanitarian aid in the areas devastated by the earthquakes. We learn how the shock of the news of the earthquakes while in her home in Spain took away her singing voice, but praying for guidance she followed her answer and went to help as a volunteer. Upon arrival at the site of the earthquakes she retreated after which no tears came as she steeled herself for the task ahead. We also learn what brought hope and the strength to continue to all people, even when faced with "Hell on Earth". Please listen in, be moved and help Aysu help the people most in need.

Annie' Naisalei Nanari lives in Kajiado county, Kenya. In a World Water Day (March 22) Special we talk to Annie about how global warming and four years of drought have pushed survival and daily routines to a knife edge for her community. Women cut down trees to turn them into charcoal in a desperate bid to feed their children; it is not unusual to walk from morning to evening in search of water and return with nothing. Men are often away from their families, droving their livestock in a desperate search to find somewhere where they can feed. Faith and hard work - including a well building project - offer some hope in an otherwise desperate situation, along with the rare and precious gifts of celebrations to mark special anniversaries, and rights-of-passage ceremonies. Annie's greatest love is song, and we are treated to not one but two succulent examples. You can find out more about the Maasai and help Annie's people here: https://tinyurl.com/5fsted4a

Nina Stopar lives and works in Slovenia. Nina won a scholarship to study and work at Trinity Art Studios as part of her Masters in Abstract Painters at the University of Ljubljana. This scholarship saw her in London during the first lockdown, a process of unanticipated isolation. Nina says this as both "unfortunate and fortunate" for so much time alone in a studio impacted her art dramatically. In this interview we discuss at length her large canvas named 'Surrender' and what surrender means to her.  Nina says, "If you do not surrender in life, there is no life, there is no art, there is no magic." We also discuss abstraction, the meaning of colors in art and life, the relationship between dance and fine arts in the work she produces, the changing role of gender identity across the generations in Slovenia - with a spotlight on her grandmother, her mother and herself - and her definition of what it means in today's world to be a fully embodied woman.

Justine gained recognition including seeing some of her original songs reach giddy heights on the JJJ (Australia's national alternative radio station) indie charts and later beat tough competition to come 4th in the Emergenza Band Competition in Sydney out of about 400 acts. Significantly, her album 'A Long Way From Home' won an ARMA Award for Best Album in 2019. Listen in for a great story about life as a muso that will  leave many emergent singer-songwriters inspired.
