Today is World Parkinson’s Day and we will be featuring Xanya Mamunya, who was a concert harpist and teacher, also has PD and is currently a dancer with Dance for Parkinson’s Australia, that is about to embark on a collaboration with Paris Wages with @ausballet

But this episode is about the extraordinary woman who tells us that the ‘Harp plays you’ and that having Parkinson’s means choosing joy & choosing movement.

Thankyou Xanya. Thankyou.

** Note. We do have some pauses here. Part internet. Part just pauses. They remain as they are. As it was recorded. 

OH! And if you are listening for the first time! This is your introduction (required reading). This series is unedited, raw and just gets straight into it. You have been warned! 

Luv Kate

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.
