On your knees praying to anyone that will listen; please keep my daughter earth side.

This is a pain so real it hits you at the very core.

Sophie is a single Mother with two daughters; India, 16 and Violet, 14.

In 2017, after months of panic attacks and school refusal, India was diagnosed with depression and anxiety.

In 2018, this diagnosis escalated to severe social anxiety and clinical depression.

She moved schools for her as she wanted a fresh start, and that seemed to help for six months, then India's anxiety became heightened due to her social surroundings and she went downhill fast.

In 2019 the self-harming began, then in the march the suicide attempts started. 

Fast forward to 2022 and Sophie has started the Please Stay Foundation.

She is a woman of Influence…

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.
Hosted by Kate Meade Produced by Sophie Jackson

It's not very often the twins will do something separate. They are together with a bond like no other. On this episode however it's all about Alisa. What a powerhouse she is. But as Alisa talks about. It's always with her sister Lysandra. 
Alisa & Lysandra Fraser gained fame after winning the popular renovation TV show, The Block, in 2013. They went on to establish Alisa & Lysandra Interiors in 2014, specialising in bespoke residential and commercial projects.
They have cultivated a unique design aesthetic that combines minimalism, luxury, masculinity, and softness, with an unwavering commitment to impeccable quality, craftsmanship, and the use of tactile materials.

South Australia is home to some remarkable women.
They’re raising foster families. Running cattle stations. Living inspirational lives. Yet, many of their tales of triumph are never profiled, never celebrated. So we’re changing that… every week.. through our Women Of Influence Podcast.

Welcome to the Women of Influence Podcast and it is with great pleasure I introduce you to my friend Danielle (or Danza to her friends). 

Actually she has already been featured on the Women of Influence so this is really a re-introduction!

Everyone needs a friend like Danza in their life. And if you don't, well I'm going to share her with you every Thursday. 

In this episode we get straight into it! 

The Blunt Text

Gifts from your ex. 

Collingwood

Netball.... and then I accidentally zone out a bit!

We are in desperate need of a fact checker! 

This episode was recorded in Danza's caravan which doubles as her hair dressing salon. You can check it out at on instagram @paristhecaravanbar or @parishairandbeauty_by_daneel

We will also continue to feature incredible women but..... just once a week you get just Kate & Danza living our best lives! Talking crap, solving the problems of the world, laughing and crying. 

Enjoy.

Luv Kate
