Season 4, Episode 14 - Amreen Kahlon
05/12/2025 | 35 mins.
Amreen Kahlon was part of the Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club team that won the women's KFC T20 MAX competition recently. In addition to being a great cricketer, Amreen has a keen interest in psychology, which is she is currently studying. She is able to see the clear connection between psychology and sporting success.
It was a refreshing conversation with Amreen and I loved hearing her share her gap year experience last year, visiting India for the first time and connecting with family, culture and the world of cricket in that country. A delightful conversation, and I hope you enjoy.
Season 4, Episode 13 - Kara Cook MP (Federal Member for Bonner)
16/10/2025 | 33 mins.
Kara Cook MP became the elected Federal Member for Bonner in May 2025, making her the third woman representing the Bayside across all levels of government.
I had a lovely conversation with Kara about what interested her in entering politics, and how her life from a young person in Yeppoon has been one with a strong connection to community values. Her early career work as an advocate for domestic violence survivors has led her to still have a fierce desire for wanting to play a role in contributing to systematic and cultural change in that space.
I hope you enjoy getting to know Kara.
Season 4, Episode 12 - Elizabeth Ross, Co-conductor of the Wynnum Choral Society
28/08/2025 | 34 mins.
As the co-conductor of the Wynnum Choral Society (turning 100 in 2026!!), Elizabeth shared with me her love of music and the joy of singing. We had a fun conversation that included voice impersonations, and lots of laughter. It has reignited my own passion for singing in a choir - not about having the perfect voice but all of the other benefits you gain. I hope when listening you can pick up the sense of enthusiasm and joy this conversation oozed.

Season 4, Episode 11 - Di Catto (Days for Girls)
13/08/2025 | 34 mins.
Di Catto is the Rotary supported group leader for Days for Girls, an organisation that changes lives for young girls. Finding out about Days for Girls blew me away, as they help make education possible for many, by providing menstruation bags. There is a space in the Bayside where people come together one day a week to make these bags, to be distributed to those in need.
Di is warm and easy to spend time with, and it is clear that she genuinely loves being part of something that is making a difference. I hope that you enjoy getting to know Di, and appreciate the contribution that Days for Girls, under her leadership, is making.

Season 4, Episode 10 - Eleanor from 3 Elements Coffee (Veteran Support Coffee)
31/07/2025 | 38 mins.
Eleanor has travelled all the way from the UK to live in our beautiful part of the world. She is my first podcast guest who as a young woman was inspired by Richard Gere's An Officer and a Gentleman movie to join the Navy. She did meet the love of her life and amongst a lot of joy, travel and adventure there has been darkness, which has inspired 3 elements coffee. Eleanor and Terry do incredible work to contribute to better outcomes for those transitioning from the military, as well as make great coffee! Enjoy getting to know Eleanor.

3elementscoffee.com is an Australian and veteran owned company, started by Eleanor's husband in 2016.
