Rick Price is known in Australia for his hits including “Heaven Knows”, “Walk Away Renee” and “Not a Day Goes By”, but he’s so much more.  Now living in Nashville, he is a producer, while still continuing to create original music.  His latest album, Tennessee Sky, brings him back to Australia with his “Can I Get a Witness” Tour in April.  Susie got to catch up with Rick ahead of the tour by Skype to talk music, touring, food, health, Tina Arena, famous people in Nashville and producing music. 

We also caught up again with Dr Charlotte Middleton to ask for the doctor’s perspective on a debate of parents versus doctor in the doctor’s surgery.  If a parent brings a child in to see a doctor with a gut feeling of what’s going on, but the doctor diagnoses something else, how hard should a parent push to follow their gut?

Mothers all know it. “I work too much”, “I don’t read to my child enough”, “I don’t listen to my child properly” and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.  Motherhood is often laiden with guilt, but it doesn’t have to be.  Our guest in this episode has done the hard yards, exploring what is behind motherly guilt and what does it take to overcome it.  It all comes down to four keys that, when put into practise, will help not just motherly guilt, but all unnecessary guilt that is experienced in life.

Also in this episode, we have tributes to Dads.  The day this episode is released is the day of Luke’s father’s funeral.  Though he doesn’t give his full tribute here, it does make us think about dads and we hear from two women in different life circumstances sharing tributes to their fathers.

Many years ago, Luke and Susie MC’d a Multicultural event and met a young girl named Fatai.  She stunned them with her singing voice.  Then, years later, she was on The Voice Australia, sharing her incredible talent.  In this episode, we catch up with Fatai again to hear about life since The Voice Australia, her incredible covers on youtube, her music, her life and her family.  Along the way, we give her some great creative ideas for the next steps of her career.  Fatai is beautifully vulnerable and honest about the joys and the challenges in the work that she does and is bold in sharing the faith behind everything she does.

Luke also shares in this episode about an incident that happened as the family was together on the weekend.  To say he was a hero is, well, exactly what Luke would say.  He rescued animals, from other animals.  Then, he ate bacon.  You be the judge.

Thankyou Water started with a desire to make an impact on the world water crisis.  With their bottled water, they started taking shelf space and, before too long, it was time to expand.  Not only did they add to their product line with food and body care products, they added to their dream of seeing clean water for all, to eradicating global poverty in our lifetime.  Daniel Flynn, co-founder of Thankyou Water, now “Thankyou”, is our guest in this episode, as they launch a new chapter again in the social enterprise that is taking everyday products and making them world-changing.
