Jenni talks about being an artist, what it takes, what it means and how you do it.

Jenni studied to be an art educator and eventually ended up with her own studio in the southwest of Western Australia.

My favourite quote of the episode is "Having a picture is a guaranteed disappointment. Surely we've all had a picture of how an event's gonna be or how a meal's gonna be, or how a person's gonna be, and how disappointing is that Most of the time. If you go in with an open heart and an open mind, what comes from you needs to be respected, and if you don't like it, it's yours. You can burn it."

Dianna talks about being a podcaster, what it takes, what it means and how you do it.

My favourite quote of the episode is "I'm so curious about so many things, and you just cannot get all the answers by yourself. The other day. I was talking to a friend and she was talking about the noxious gases released by a lake in South Africa, or around that way, and I ended up going on a side quest for several hours researching Noxious Lakes and how they impacted communities in the area. If I didn't have that person to talk to, and this was within the Finding Elara Group, if I didn't have that person to contact, or speak to, I wouldn't have even thought of that for a world building aspect. There's just so many fascinating things you can't know by yourself."

Dan talks about being a parkrun Statesman, what it takes, what it means and how you do it.

My favourite quote of the episode is "And sometimes like we'll have a parkrun coffee. And you go, okay, I've had coffee and then suddenly it's morning tea. And then after morning tea, suddenly, lunches come out. And then it's like after lunch we've left coffee. Right? So at times we up to, sometimes I've had parkrun coffees that have gone for say, five hours, and you can talk a lot about parkrun in five hours, but at the same time, we all walk her away with a smile on our face. So, which is great."
