In today's episode, I chat with Shannon Molloy, a journalist and author whose latest book, You Made Me This Way, delves into the impact of childhood trauma and the resilience needed to overcome it. I'm excited by this guest because Shannon's insights into trauma and resilience are both profound and relatable. I like his book because it provides a raw and courageous exploration of personal and societal issues, making this conversation both enlightening and inspiring. This episode covers a deeply moving topic that's often hidden behind closed doors and only shared with a therapist or a trusted loved one. By sharing Shannon's story, I'm hoping to destigmatise this often taboo and difficult subject.In this episode, we discussShannon explains how storytelling can humanise and address difficult topics. He believes that "when you put humanity back into a topic like child sexual abuse or mental health, you bring the community along with you, and that's when you can affect real change."Shannon shares his journey in confronting and writing about his trauma. He candidly discusses the challenges he faced and the realisation that he is not alone in his struggles. "The suppression of it, I mean, and then, you know, the more I spoke to him, the more I looked into the topic, the more I realised that I'm not unique."Shannon highlights the injustices faced by men who carry the burden of untold stories. "There's a real injustice in that, and I don't think it's an accident that, this is the way things are. It enraged me that there's a not insignificant number of men walking around with this enormous burden on their shoulders, and they, for so many reasons, feel like they can never tell anyone."Quotes- "You're not broken. You're not a deviant or in some way defective. This is a scientific reaction to the most unspeakable hurt inflicted on you as a child. This isn't your fault." - Shannon Molloy- "There's a real injustice in that, and I don't think it's an accident that that is the way things are. It enraged me that there's a not insignificant number of men walking around with this enormous burden on their shoulders, and they, for so many reasons, feel like they can never tell anyone." - Shannon MolloyAbout Shannon MolloyShannon Molloy is an award-winning journalist and author with more than fifteen years' experience working for major media outlets spanning print, digital and publishing. He began his career at Fairfax in Brisbane as an award-winning news reporter and has since covered property, business, entertainment and human interest. He spent seven years working for News Corp as an entertainment reporter and feature writer, then as News Editor of news.com.au. He is currently the News Editor at realestate.com.au.Shannon was the 2020 recipient of Journalist of the Year at the Mumbrella Publish Awards. His debut book, Fourteen, a memoir about growing up gay in regional Queensland, is a critically acclaimed bestseller that was turned into a sell-out hit stage production and is now being adapted for the screen.Shannon also contributes to various charity organisations and founded the annual Clare Atkinson Memorial Scholarship for journalism at The University of Queensland.Resources Mentioned

Literally, there are too many to list here but here's a sample –“When someone's adding value in your life, that's a relationship you come back to”“What do your customers care about?”“Marketing is the pursuit of ruthless experimentation”“Your marketing plan is as much about the things you are not going to do as the things you will do.”During the interview, Kirt made mention of a summary of some key concepts covered in his earlier podcast (Episode 69).

The discussion truly is a celebration of how marketing can be interesting, appealing and, as Kirt clearly states….Fun!Following the interview, Kirt kindly provided a summary of some key concepts covered during the discussion, Design & Build, where Design refers to creating a brand blue print and Build refers to constructing a marketing plan. Access the summary here.The company with awesome marketing that Kirt mentioned during the “Rapid Fire Dozen” section was Catch: www.catch.com.auKirt also mentioned the book by Byron Sharp “How Brands Grow.

Eve Smith is a collaborative family lawyer at Umbrella Family Law.She understands that any contact with the legal system can be quite daunting for most of us, but it’s even more challenging and emotional when it involves a relationship breakdown.Being a mum of two very active boys changed Eve’s approach to family law. She wanted to be able to practice in a holistic, family centric way that avoided court proceedings and helped everyone involved become emotionally ready to start their new lives.Training as a collaborative family lawyer gave her a variety of different tools to help resolve issues without the need for court proceedings.After moving to Melbourne from England, she partnered with Jane Libbis to form Umbrella Family Law to offer a more empowering option for people facing separations in our modern world.In this episode, we discuss how collaborative family law differs from what many expect from ‘traditional’ law practices, including:Why avoiding litigation is preferable for separating couples;How Umbrella Family Law treats people differently;How collaborative law is less adversarial and more flexible;What are Consent Orders and Binding Financial Agreements;Why collaboration with complementary professionals is an essential part of the holistic approach.No matter what your current relationship status, you should know that what Eve offers is available.You can get in touch with Eve at Umbrella Family Law via:Website: umbrellafamilylaw.com.auLinkedIn: au.linkedin.com/in/eve-smith-26202138Email: eve@umbrellafamilylaw.com.auPhone: (03) 9923 2020Don't forget to follow us on our socials:Website: https://withevelynandemily.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/withevelynandemily/Instagram: @withevelynandemilyEmail: info@withevelynandemily.comEvelyn's Instagram: evelynclark_financeEmily's Instagram: emily_wallace_ba
