First up, can you feel it? Our young men? Who are our leaders of our young men? 

A conversation that is bubbling away and the question is can we course correct or is it too far gone?

Jasmin Tarasin is an Australian writer, director and producer and LIFE COULD BE A DREAM is a story that had to be told. 

A lifetime of work and projects and development. It's time for Jasmin to debut her feature film that will ask yourself those questions about our beautiful boys and do it through film and in a way that will burst open gentle conversations or harsh straight to the point ones as we find ourselves in this moment in time. 

Thank-you Jasmin for sharing your time with us. 

I can't wait to talk to my son about the film. 
Luv Kate

LIFE COULD BE A DREAM: In selected cinemas May 14th 2026

How do we shed old stories about how love should be and write new ones?

In the brightness of an Australian summer, 40-year-old Sarah must confront the brutal truth that she's trapped in an abusive marriage and the romantic illusions that have sustained it. As the struggles of her 13-year-old son's adolescence begin to surface, she sees the escalating danger of staying – for both herself and her son.

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.
