Louis Harrison chats with Maggie Zhou about her experience connecting with culture from the other side of the world, the way she communicates with others and her experience developing resilience despite microaggressions and prejudice in society.

Maggie Zhou wears many hats. She’s a writer, editor, podcaster, content creator, speaker, emcee... and more that we couldn’t possibly fit into a list here.

The topics Maggie Zhou covers in her work range from sustainability, internet and pop culture to fashion. You might have read her pieces in some of the country’s top culture publications, perhaps you follow her for (slow) fashion tips or maybe this is the first time her name has come across your orbit. 

Maggie Zhou has a unique and authentic presence you’ve got to keep an eye on.

Romayne read somewhere that emotional generosity is the key ingredient to all human relationships and this has been her obsession since. The practice of emotional generosity is particularly important for Romayne, who understands that those in the communications industry are responsible for how messages are distributed, received and acted upon, as well as how they are amplified, managed or quashed. In her work and in her community, Romayne strives to make people feel seen, safe, understood and appreciated; because that's how we can contribute to protecting others' resilience.

The Burden of Low Expectations; Challenging Disability Stigma Across Cultures: Esther Simbi

Multi hyphenate creative talent, Shy Ganglani speaks with Ruhee Meghani.

Shy is a professional copy-writer, a comedian and poet - just a few of her talents!

Together they discuss, trying to 'blend in' to culture, and then finding connection and friendships through authentic interests and community spaces.

Shy and Ruhee also critique the concept of "resilience" and how it is often applied to migrants and cultural groups as an expectation.

About Ruhee: Ruhee Meghani is an inclusive facilitator and public speaker with over 12 years of teaching and facilitating experience. To support others in their learning journey, Allied Collective was founded to solve the need for impactful, inclusive, and accessible training. Today, Ruhee combines these insights with years of experience in teaching to provide clients with engaging workshops, training, and facilitation.

During times of crisis, community resilience is put to its greatest test, and history has shown that diverse communities are more resilient than mono-cultural communities.

This project will build the capacity of communities to engage in constructive dialogue with the media as a means of addressing local challenges and create another pathway into media for culturally and linguistically diverse journalists and media makers. To participate in Stories of Community Resilience, please contact podcasts@3zzz.com.au.

Can Diabetes Be Prevented?: Mubina Jamdar

A woman is always judged by her external characteristics, even in the 21st century. Women who do not adhere to the societal norms of 'beautiful' are often deemed as an outcast and are judged by one and all.

On that note, we spoke with Ishita Kumar who shared her experience of dealing with hair loss and embracing baldness.  Ishita was born and brought up in Delhi. An architect who turned her profession as furniture manufacturer. She is light headed and proud (took a long time to get here). Growing up, she tried every hack to better hair density, to stop the thinning and balding, struggled and eventually owned it.

We hope Ishita's journey gives everyone a strong message of hope, resilience and confidence.

Women and Hair Loss - Ishita Kumar

Mental health and associated therapy is an often ignored topic as it comes with a lot of stigma associated with itself.

On that note, we speak with Gurvinder Kaur who uses the medium of arts as therapy for mental health. Gurvinder is a South-Asian migrant woman working in the mental health sector for 2 years and uses her lived experience to inspire people to access mental health support. 

Gurvinder started her Instagram page @artsybrownlady to combine her diverse lens using arts to talk about mental health issues with the South Asian community in Australia. Gurvinder is also a qualified youth worker!

She is a strong advocate of mental health issues and recommends everyone to seek help.

Pursuing Art as a Career & Capturing Conflict in Photography: Ahmed Sabra

Fadilah reflects on her experiences navigating life, study, and the industry of design & art as a woman of colour, and establishing herself as a digital artist over the past decade.  

About Fadilah: 

Fadilah is a Digital Artist based in Sydney, Australia and has been practicing her craft for over 10 years. Her work is a window into her experience as a female, muslim first-generation migrant living in suburban Australia. First and foremost, she is inspired by community. 

Her work explores the intersectionality of faith, culture and gender through a predominantly western lens. The emergence of the "third culture" is a recurring theme in her art as it explores the dichotomy of the East and West and how it has influenced her upbringing and her art.

She strives to use her work to give a voice to people in marginalised communities such as herself and many of her generation who share her experiences.

Navigating A Business Start-Up & Entrepreneurship: Peter Gould

The mining industry is most often regarded as a 'Man's' industry.

Our guest - Dr Ritipurna Das was born and raised in Kolkata, India and moved to Melbourne a decade ago. She has lived and worked in different cities of Australia long enough to pick up the local jargon (pun intended). 

Dr Das is currently working as a Project Geologist in the longest running mining operation in Tasmania. Ritipurna is a trained dancer and loves being outdoors when she is not at work.

Stories of Community Resilience - Education, Work and Careers

During times of crisis, community resilience is put to its greatest test, and history has shown that diverse communities are more resilient than mono-cultural communities.

This anthology podcast series showcases real stories of how multicultural communities in Melbourne are supporting each other throughout tough times such as the coronavirus pandemic.

This project will build the capacity of communities to engage in constructive dialogue with the media as a means of addressing local challenges and create another pathway into media for culturally and linguistically diverse journalists and media makers. To participate in Stories of Community Resilience, please contact podcasts@3zzz.com.au.
