This is Briony.

The make it happen person. 

Her story has a familiar theme not quite fitting but with the power of great females around you; the support will get you through....and then you fly!

I have know Briony since she was about 13 years old. I remember thinking I wanna be cool like Briony. Still do if I'm honest.

She is a Marketing WIZ! I say again- the make it happen person. Just knows how to find a way. 

This chat didn't intent to turn into a bit about a shoe brand it just happens that Briony is working for one and I wanted to know more about building community V traditional marketing. 

I got off the end of this chat and just want to start creating. 

Thanks Briony. Love you long time.

Women of Influence, with Kate Meade. We are on a mission to find the most incredible women. Some we will know, others are going about their daily lives. Everyone has a story. She is a CEO, She is a volunteer, She is a TV host, She is a doctor, an educator, a scientist, a leader. She is just getting on with it. What can we learn from her, what’s her message? Join me to celebrate incredible, inspiring women and shine a great big beacon of light on their stories. Let’s learn from the women that are paving the way for us. I love to learn and my favorite way is through storytelling. I am curious - absolutely fascinated - with people's stories. I can’t wait to get to KNOW the person in front of me and HOW they got to be where they are today. Where did they grow up, what gets them excited, why do they do what they do and, when it gets tough… why do they do what they do? This is the Women of Influence Podcast.

Happy St Patrick's Day to you. 

Zenita moved to Australia 15 years ago to play music and then made a life here. A band, two Irish pubs and another on Chapel Street this is a woman that has rolled with it.

We talk about music, why the move, and then how it came about saving one of Melbourne's most Iconic Irish Pubs- The Quite Man now Auntie Annies in Flemington.
Paying tribute to the original owner in the name, finding the blueprints of the building and saving it from demolition. 

Now to be honest. If I ever wished I could edit these podcasts I would but I made a promise that even if I asked a stupid question it would stay in. So forgive me as I asked about an 'Irish' song I love and find out it's Scottish. YIKES! 

Now to go enjoy this wonderful day of dancing and singing. Happy St Patricks Day everyone. 

Love Kate

This is Adelle and she is a Dance Mum. 

Let me be clear. This is completely different to being a 'dance mom'. 

When you have a child that wants to do what only the 1% can do it takes a great deal of committement.

But more than talent, it's luck, the right moment and right time. It's waiting for a yes all while getting a thousand no's. 

So, what do you do when your child 'makes it' and COVID strikes. How do you get them through when you are on different sides of the world. 

This is only one part of Adelle's story. It's part her, and part her daughter Molly. What a team they have made.

This is a story of what it has taken for one family to help their child make it. 

Thank-you Adelle and like I say in this episode. Thank-you for all the support you have given the Victorian Dance Festival over the years. In the early days it wouldn't have been or got to what it was without you. 

Love Kate

16/100 TAKE 2: Adelle Givney. More than a dance Mum.

This is Mrs McPearl also known as Norma. 

I asked Mrs McPearl want she wanted most and she said 'to be taken seriously'. 

I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since. 

Not quite 70 Mrs McPearl and Norma are the same person with two identities. But they share something beautiful in common. A passion for a story of a pearl or bead, that age is no barrier and if you think you can discount a person due to their age you have another thing coming. 

Feminism, ageism, barbie dolls, teaching.... there is so much to celebrate in this story. In Normas story that has evolved into Mrs McPearl. 

She is a Woman of Influence.
