Today we are chatting with Eva Kiemeney
"Beep" by the Pussycat Dolls. That was thirteen-year-old Eva's answer when her mom asked what song she wanted played at her funeral.
Eighteen years later, her father Ed passed away after several years living with Alzheimer's. After his death in 2024, Eva started her mission to make death a normal topic of conversation. Through lighthearted dinners and workshops at festivals she invites people to reflect on their own mortality. When she's not working on death, Eva helps mission-driven entrepreneurs with branding and storytelling.
Eva Kiemeney is from the Netherlands, dances house dance and discovered rollerdance as her new hobby and hopes one day to go on Tour with Your Last Party.

Find out more about Ana:
I have always been curious about what it means to lead a good life and know that mindfulness is vital to staying grounded and authentic to one's heart.
Unfortunately, I found it very hard to be consistent. The busier I got and the more I needed it, the less mindful I became.
Whilst I love going to a retreat and immersing myself in inner work, I needed something that would help my day-to-day and allow me to reflect on what is important without retreating from the world. And so, Your Mindful Year was born out of my selfish need.

Today we are talking to Mayra Clay and we are joined by her husband, Mark.
Mayra is a meditation teacher and former primary school teaching assistant whose work sits right at the intersection of emotional wellbeing, practical family support, and raising resilient kids.
Mayra’s approach flips the script on the old idea that children’s emotions need quick fixes. Instead, through her book The Boy and the Pink Light and her background in both education and meditation, she helps families create space for sadness, anger, and confusion, not as problems to solve, but as signals to understand. Her “pink light” concept has opened up real, practical conversations for parents and children who want emotional literacy to feel human and accessible.
With her story rooted in firsthand experience of emotional suppression and family trauma, Mayra brings a gentle, grounded voice that your listeners will find both comforting and genuinely useful. She’s especially excited to share how simple shifts in daily interactions can help kids feel heard and understood, even in moments that feel overwhelming.
You can connect with Mayra and find out more through the links below.

Today we are talking to Denis Juelicher.
Denis found yoga in the early nineties - a practice that over the years has transformed and enriched her, essentially becoming a way of life, rather than something that strictly happens on a mat. Denis credits yoga for her developing understanding of the subtler truths of life – our connectedness with each other and the living world, the cyclical nature of life and death, and our true essence: love.
Her love of community and conscious, healthy living has led her to be involved with bringing a number of community events and projects to the Hastings, including Ekam Yoga Festival, the Lost Plot Community Garden, Gathered for Good, Tender Funerals Mid North Coast and Moving with Grief.
In the past decade, she has felt called to give her time and energy to community death and grief care - training as a death doula and leading the establishment of the community-based death care service, Tender Funerals Mid North Coast, as well as the community grief support initiative, Moving with Grief.

Today we are chatting with Joshua Moses.
Josh is a creative and professional consultant having been based in regional NSW for the last 13 years. Most importantly, he is a husband and father, but to support this mission he's taken the approach in his career life to always be learning. As such, he has worked across agriculture, construction, not for profits, international aid, education and now environmental approvals.
Having lived as an expat in India, Nepal and Bangladesh, and having travelled to 25+ countries, he has a developed world view. With his passions in economics, creative media and global citizenry - he has maintained a small side business allowing creativity to serve the needs of small businesses as well as part time lecturing at university. His aim is to create intangible legacy rather than legacy based on solely wealth.
When he was 22yo, a chance meeting with a brilliant individual led him to learn and attempt to embody a phrase that has stuck with him since - to always 'invest in people'.
If you would like to contact Joshua, please email us [email protected] and we will pass your request on, thank you.
