“They are human, with feelings. They get forgotten about,’ says Emma. “I see them as individuals, their life now is about who they are, not what they did. I love their stories, hearing the emotion of those memories evoked from the music I play and the lessons of life they reflect on during our little chats.”
In this series she will be interviewing a range of colour characters and experts who shine a light on what is being done and what needs to be address to value the lives of our ageing population.

Mel is a Dr of International Law who specialises in genocide studies. She has spent a lot of time in the field visiting significant sites of conflict and war museums, as well as interviewing survivors and their families.
But as you can imagine, the subject matter takes its toll. Listening to the horrifying things people do to each other, as well as the isolation of long solo trips to places like Armenia, Bosnia and Cambodia have proven challenging.
Listen to Mel talk about the support networks that make it possible to keep going with the work, the passion that fuels her research and the book she is working on that seeks to reveal the patterns of behaviour that have preceded every genocide event ever.

It's been 1 year to the day. It's taken me 52 weeks to reinstate the elements of empowerment into my daily life.
Having done the work previously, I gathered the shattered shards of my confidence and put them back together like a puzzle, one day at a time. Along the way I created 52 episodes of insightful and inspirational conversations with the incredible people who have become the fibres in my fabric of truth. Friends, mentors, practitioners and coaches, who from their own experiences, help those who want to be helped.
Like you, I have come to accept that 'life challenges' strike at any time. Some you see coming, others side swipe you from out of the blue, calling on every fibre in your being to weather the storm.
What I learnt was how to shut out the world's mess, control what I can and be who I need to be, for myself and as a consequence have the capacity to be that someone for others.
Empowerment is a switch only you have. So I hope this podcast enables you and provides the time and space to reduce the overwhelm.
The Elements of Empowerment is a series of interviews and research into the personal characteristics we value in others and the virtues admired by most.
Confidence, Optimism, Respect, Trust, Forgiveness, Self Belief, Strength and Gratitude are just some of the 52 elements of empowerment that have been packaged up for you to reflect upon, remind yourself and recognise your own self worth.
This biggest killer of dreams is doubt and all you need is one person to believe in you. So I am here. I am that person. You are not your past, your mistakes or poor choices. You have capacity and potential. So let's find out what that looks like.

Melissa and Peter share the story of the aftermath of the accident, including the grief, guilt, sense of responsibility and overwhelming motivation to share their story in the hope that they will save young lives.

Mark was on a client call when his daughter’s mother kept calling. And calling. And calling. It was unusual so he cut his work call short and called her back, only to discover that his 10 year old daughter, Mina, was in an ambulance on the way to hospital.
Mina had suffered a brain haemorrhage and had lost one third of the functioning of her right brain hemisphere. Her left side had lost feeling and mobility.
This was the beginning of a 2.5 year battle to help Mina regain her independence, while also questioning the medical establishment’s normal procedures around rehabilitation.
Mark shares how he got through it, as well as the emotional fall-out that occurs when the crisis is over.
