Ep.5 - Rabbi Jacqui Ninio

Rabbi Jacqui Ninio is the third ever Australian-born female rabbi. She is a passionate, powerful and vital voice for compassion and justice in our community – about asylum seekers, marriage equality and more. We talked about the impact that gender has on her role as a Rabbi and community leader, and how and when she chooses to speak out on the contentious and controversial issues. I hope you enjoy listening as much I did interviewing.

Ep. 4 - Jarrod White

In this episode, we chat with Jarrod White about some of the WHYs of life. We talked a lot about why Jarrod thinks that Vince Vaughn would play him in a movie of his life, why remembering our past is vital for our future, why he parties as a means of release from the heavy emotional toll of his job and why and how he builds a tribe around him that allows him to be who he wants to be. Jarrod has just completed his PHD in psychology having written his thesis on how different cultural groups deal with trauma, he’s also an active community leader, pioneering game-changing mental health projects such as Life of Others, which you’ll hear more about in this episode. We had a good laugh but also got deep about some very important topics. Enjoy the episode!
