What does it take to pack up your life, leave everything familiar behind and start again on the other side of the world?

This week on 3 Wise Ducks, we chat with bestselling Australian author, artist and illustrator Meredith Gaston Masnata from her new home in Italy. Meredith shares the reality of moving overseas with a toddler, preparing to welcome another baby and embracing all the excitement, uncertainty and unexpected moments that come with such a life changing decision.

We also talk about the creative journey behind her beautiful books, what inspires her work and how she continues to create while navigating motherhood and a brand new chapter of life. Meredith also shares the exciting story behind her recent collaboration with Hallmark and what this new adventure means to her.

This is a warm and honest conversation about following your heart, taking courageous leaps, finding beauty in life's everyday moments and discovering that sometimes the biggest adventures begin when you step outside your comfort zone.

Whether you've ever dreamed of living overseas, wondered what it's really like to start over in a new country or simply love hearing inspiring stories from creative people, you'll enjoy this heartfelt conversation with Meredith.

Ever wondered what hypnotherapy is really like? In this episode of 3 Wise Ducks, we sit down with Jan to separate fact from fiction and explore one of the most misunderstood therapies around.

We chat about what hypnotherapy is, what it isn't and how it can help with challenges such as anxiety, confidence, habits, fears and more. Along the way, we share plenty of laughs, ask the questions many people are thinking and uncover why hypnotherapy is often quite different from what people expect.

If you've ever been curious about hypnotherapy or wondered whether it could help you or someone you know, this conversation is a great place to start.
