Have you ever considered your experiences growing up and how much of this you may pass onto your children? As

parents, we often look to our own experiences to guide what we do and hopefully teach our children about culture,

heritage, and the lessons we have learnt.

Cherie Johnson, owner and operator of Speaking in Colour, believes that communication across the generations is

the key to effect change in our society. In this podcast episode, she shares her own experiences of growing up as an

Indigenous Australian and how we can start conversations with our children about culture and heritage.

As an educator and artist, Cherie also shares her thoughts on diversifying our exposure and broadening the media

we consume to build a better understanding of others and connect with our culture.
