  • Moonlight Conversations explores topics you and I want to talk about - life, love, hopes and dreams, and everything in between. It tackles the discussions we have with ourselves and other people about our thoughts, emotions and experiences. Most of all, it delves into why conversations are highly essential for physical, emotional and mental well-being, and how our souls and spirits need them to thrive, and not just survive.

  • A Woman's Resilience at a Crossroads with Kate Delmo
    Nov 18 2022

    I interview Kate Delmo, an academic and senior lecturer at the University of Technology in Sydney.  I interview her about her views on resilience, and how she defines it.  She talks about what her struggles are both at home and at work, and how she balances them all.  We chat about introspection and internalisation on what needs to be done better, and how we should all take ownership of our decisions and life choices, and how resilience has changed her life in more ways than one.  Don't miss this episode!

    Tune in for:

    • how she defines resilience and balance between home and work
    • how she found resilience in struggles 
    • why it is important to own our decisions and choices in life 
    • how strength and resilience changed her life 
    • who else / which other strong women she looks up to 

    ABOUT ANNA

    Hello! I am Anna, a poet, writer and storyteller. For years, I have struggled with depression before I finally realised that I am enough, valued, and loved. While battling with depression and going through hoops in my search for self-confidence, I finally found the love of writing.  Journalling my thoughts, emotions and experiences in my first-ever self-published book has been a wonderful and fulfilling journey. I had such a low self-esteem before I eventually found the courage to write about my thoughts, feelings, and experiences in this collection of poems and short stories. Then, magic happened. I worked out and finally understood that I am not alone in this world, and that my story is worth sharing with all who might be feeling the same way. This collection of poems and short stories has brought me a beautiful gift of rebirth and a new leash on life. It dawned on me that my healing was a gift I owed to my self. I found self-worth.  I found love.  I found joy.  I found myself as whole again. Through my journey, I have become an advocate for meaningful conversations.  I am starting a podcast, and I would love to talk to you, and talk about how it is so important for our souls and spirits to thrive, and not just survive. We all deserve to be happy - to shine and to sparkle!

  • What is your WHY?
    Nov 11 2022

    I ask the most important question in this special episode: What is your Why?  Don't miss this episode!

    Tune in for:

    • listen to my poem Keeping It Real
    • MOONINGS 

    What is your WHY?

    Are you aware that when you know your Why, you will find out your How too? Or is it the other way around?

    Would you even care to find out? Have you got the time? No matter how long it takes?

    Will a simple answer, like yes, or no, or a one-liner, do?

    Don't you think all this matters? That all these matter?Do you like these questions? Are you happy with your answers?
