Join us for a live recording of Local Big Year Celebration 2024. This episode features the stories of birdwatchers who participated in Local Big Year 2024 and the delights that come from paying attention to neighbourhood birds.Hugh Possingham is currently the co-chief councillor of The Biodiversity Council, and Vice-President of BirdLife Australia. He has devoted his life to stopping habitat loss around the world. He completed a PhD in Mathematics and Ecology at Oxford University in the UK and this led to a career in universities in the USA and Australia. He has mainly worked as a university professor and is currently at the University of Queensland. He also served two years at Chief Scientist of Queensland and four years as Chief Scientist of the Nature Conservancy. Hugh has over 1000 peer-reviewed scientific publications and his list of achievements goes on and on. Amongst all of this, he still likes to go birding at Oxley Creek Common in Brisbane.Jo Bangles is a graphic designer, bird noticer, eco worrier (yes, worry-er), and occasional adventurer. She lives on the Surf Coast, very close to a small wetland she affectionately calls The Swamp. Her Local Big Year area started at the Swamp but quickly expanded to include the streets she walks down to get there. Her spark bird was a hummingbird she encountered on a deserted beach in Mexico over 20 years ago. It was a truly magical encounter!Sophie Walker is bird enthusiast, and self reported “very average birder”, who uses birding as an excuse to get outside in the fresh air and spend time in nature. She works as a registered nurse in an intensive care unit, and so self care and hobbies like birding are a great way for her to wind down and reset her body clock after shift work. You can catch Sophie distracted by birds almost anywhere she goes and regardless of how “common” the bird might be, she likes them all!Links:* Weekend Birder on YouTube - youtube.com/@WeekendBirder* How to do a Local Big Year guide - weekendbirder.com/how-to-guides/how-to-do-a-local-big-year* Hugh Possingham on Instagram - @hugepossum/* Jo Bangles on Instagram - @mojoxposed* Sophie Walker on Instagram - @sophiealice08* Bassian Thrush recording by Marc Anderson licenced from wildambience.comWeekend Birder online:* Website - weekendbirder.com* Instagram - @weekend.birder* Facebook - @weekend.birder Hosted on Acast.

Scott Eldridge and Jeremy Anderson are the directors of of Eldridge Anderson Architects, a 4-person residential practice based on Victoria's Surf Coast.In this episode, Scott, Jeremy and Dave discussed: Why they front-load so much effort into the sketch design stage of the design process, resolving much of the project details at this early stage and presenting a single, fully fleshed-out design idea to their clients. The benefits of slower, more mindful ways of practice like hand-drawing and physical modelmaking for refining clear design ideas, nurturing interest in and passion for practice, and injecting energy and momentum into the architect-client relationship. The ongoing debate over whether architects should put their personalities and design process out there for the world to see, or take a big step back and let the work speak for itself and allow the public to interpret the work in their own way. The idea of a less-but-better approach to marketing and communications, and why subtracting unnecessary elements and carefully considering what gets put out can give a practice a clearer and more potent brand identity.

In episode 3 of Definitely Baby's VBAC mini-series, three wonderful women share their journeys to VBAC. As the stories can attest, there is so much power in equipping yourself with evidence-based information and knowledge throughout your pregnancy, especially if you're planning a VBAC. There is so many great resources and podcasts you can gather this information, and I truly believe that the power of listening to other people's journeys to VBAC is one of the best and most empowering and encouraging forms of knowledge we can equip ourselves with. For anyone also on their VBAC journey, I hope these stories empower and encourage you. For anyone not on their VBAC journey, I hope you enjoy listening to the magic of these beautiful birth stories.  Story 1: Rachel Rachel is a mother of 2 who lives on Worimi Country, in the country town of Stroud, NSW. She lives with her husband Matt, 3 year old Connor and 12 week old baby, Eleanor. Rachel had her first birth whilst living in the Northern Beaches of Sydney in 2020, right in the middle of Covid. Through a classic cascade of interventions (induction, epidural, “failure to progress”) Connor was born via c-section at 41+5. Fast forward to 2023 and her daughter Eleanor was born via a beautifully empowering, drug free and largely pain free, VBAC. Birthing in a public hospital, with a fragmented model of care, she had to advocate hard for herself. By learning everything she could about VBACs and gathering an epic birth team, she was able to achieve a beautiful physiological birth with minimal interventions.  The full version of Rachel's birth stories will feature as one of the first episodes of the soon-to-be launched Australian VBAC Stories podcast. Check out the Australian VBAC Stories podcast's instagram page here. Story 2: Catherine Catherine lives with her partner Drew and boys Wilbur 4.5 yes and Percy 17 months, on the Surf Coast.  In her first Pregnancy, Catherine was part of the MGP program at the public hospital. Despite focusing on maternal positioning throughout the pregnancy, Wilbur was posterior and his head wasn't engaged. At 11 days over Catherine agreed to be induced, due to concerns around the his size. At 42 weeks Wilbur was born via caesarean, as his head never engaged. In between Wilbur and Percy's births Catherine had 2 early births, which, combined with the cesearean birth, impacted Catherine's confidence and trust in her body.  Catherine chose to birth with the Birth House midwives for Percy's pregnancy, and engage a supportive birth doula. During this time Catherine prepared herself mentally, physically and emotionally for a HBAC. Catherine went into labour at 11 days ‘overdue' and had an empowering, healing waterbirth at home.  The full version of Catherine's birth stories are included in an episode of the Australian Birth Stories podcast. You can listen to it here. Story 3: Georgia Georgia is a Birth & Postpartum Doula living in the Hawkesbury, north-west of Sydney with her husband and two daughters, Luna and Remi. For her first birth, she was induced at Christmastime in 2019 for post-dates, and unfortunately, experienced the typical cascade of interventions that led to an unplanned caesarean due to ‘failure to progress'. Georgia had a rough time with breastfeeding and held on to the grief of this difficult experience for a long time. Initially planning a repeat caesarean in her subsequent pregnancy, Georgia discovered the option of VBAC and homebirth at 24 weeks pregnant. She changed her plan, booked a private midwife and gave birth to her second daughter, Remi, at home in November 2021 after a marathon 36-hour labour that was beautiful, empowering and like nothing she could have ever imagined. The full version of Georgia's birth stories will feature as one of the first episodes of the soon-to-be launched Australian VBAC Stories podcast, that she is one of the hosts of.

Ingrid Daniell is an artist, an empath and all-round creative visionary who in 2019, following a chance discovery by her graphic designer husband Clifton, bought a rustic shack right by the water in the tiny seaside hamlet of Falmouth, Tasmania. After a modest renovation that aimed to be as sensitive to the 1980's design sensibilities of the property's original owner - and to the planet - as possible, Ingrid and Clifton, whose permanent home with their two teenage sons is on Victoria's Surf Coast, opened the property to guests in early 2020. Since then, this truly unique, enveloping property that seems to capture the imagination of everyone who sights it has received widespread media coverage, including features on The Design Files and in lauded American architecture publication Dwell. On a personal note, Ingrid is an artist whose work and career I have followed with great interest for many years. It was the most wonderful coincidence to recently realise she was the owner of Whale Song and no doubt an absolute pleasure to catch up with her a week or so ago. I hope you enjoy our chat.

The Australian federal election is nearly here, and I was lucky enough to sit down for a last-minute chat with Meg Watkins, a candidate for the Animal Justice Party for Corangamite electorate, on the Surf Coast in Victoria. Meg is a passionate animal and environmental advocate and is just 24 years old. On this episode, Meg shares how her overseas travels inspired her to go vegan and stand up for what she believes in. She also very graciously explains some of the Australian political system to me (this is not my forte guys, bear with me!) and why it's SO important to vote for the party that aligns best with your beliefs, even if it's they likely won't win.Connect with Meg:meg.watkins.ajp@gmail.comFacebookInstagramMentions on this episode:Animal Justice PartyAnonymous for the VoicelessFor podcast updates and recipes, you can follow me on Instagram, Tiktok or check out my blog https://vegan-diaries.com/.

Ant Williams: ‘The Ice Diver’ When you think of extreme sports, one of the top few in the world would be ice diving – free diving in the icy and freezing depths of the ocean below the ice. Based on the Surf Coast, Ant Williams has a passion not for the faint-hearted – in 2019 […] The post Ant Williams appeared first on Podcast Now.

Meg Watkins has lived in Geelong and the Surf Coast her entire life. Meg has a hospitality background, deep passion for travel and enjoys yoga, surfing and cooking. Meg wanted to go vegetarian as a child when she learnt that food contained animals, however her parents wouldn't allow her at such a young age. Meg managed to convince her parents to go vegetarian at age 14. In 2018, Meg went to see the screening of Dominion and has been vegan ever since. Meg explored the world in her late teens and early 20s, going on a solo trip after high school which became a journey of self discovery.  Meg became addicted to travel until COVID hit last year, which curbed her travel plans, so she decided to take on "van life". Meg recognised her passion for animal protection and rescue and incorporates it into all aspects of her life.  Meg was a Sanctuary Manager during her time at Pete's Mission in north Thailand, as well as a volunteer for her local wildlife rescue shelter. Meg is extremely active in Animal Justice Party, taking on several roles in her regional group as well as in State committees. In this episode, Meg shares her passion for a minimalist and eco friendly lifestyle and her motivation for nominating as a Candidate in the upcoming Federal Election. https://instagram.com/megggwatkinshttps://instagram.com/youngajpvichttps://instagram.com/ajpvicwesternvictoria

Monique Medved and I walked 62km along the Surf Coast to raise money for a Nepalese man Sancha, his family and community who have been hard hit with no income from tourism as a result of COVID19.  In this episode, Mon and I reflect on our thoughts and experiences during this massive physical and mental challenge. We chat about saying yes to experiences outside your comfort zone, not having expectations about how the experience was going to go, maintaining a positive mindset when physical barriers present themselves, the ridiculous idea of Mon carrying 30kg in her pack and returning home solo.

This week we chat with Luke Scott who has just announced that, after 13 years, he is leaving the Prickly Moses brewery in Victoria's Otways. Luke leaves his current role to join start-up Sou' West Brewing in the old Quicksilver building on Victoria's Surf Coast. Luke is one of those brewers who has seen a lot of his change over his 13 years at the brewery, one that you may not even have heard of if you're not from Victoria, and that's because the business has changed focus as the industry has grown from 100 breweries nationally to somewhere around 500. Luke has seen the business move from a brewery looking for national markets, to a locally focused brewery catering the community. We hear what he has learned and seen change as the craft brewing industry he entered has changed. We also hear about what he has planned for the new venture.

Hello beautiful people. You've probably noticed that this year has involved a big conversion from non-runner to running lover and I've had a lot of questions from fellow curious but reluctant runners about getting started and building up to finding the joy in running. So, I figured I'd turn to one of the experts to help out who also has a super interesting way to yay and is our first Kiwi on the show! I met the lovely Lydia O'Donnell through the Nike family just after she had WON the Surf Coast marathon. As well as being an elite marathon runner, she's also a running coach AND qualified geologist of all things! As you'll hear, one of the things I love about her is that while her elite level might seem very serious and intimidating (and she might have treated it that way at times), she ultimately came back to running purely for joy and for her mental health and she's even founded her own running community, One Step is All It Takes, to raise awareness of the benefits of running and movement for anxiety and depression. We had such a fun chat in the Joyride lab at Nike HQ in Melbourne and she also shared some of her practical coaching wisdom to help us all get out and pound that pavement – hope you enjoy! + Follow Lydia here + Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah + Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!

Climactic is happy to welcome aboard Maxine Bazeley for her inaugural interview. Max will be bringing us stories from the Surf Coast of Victoria, the Greater Geelong region, about how the area is confronting massive changes in the face of the climate crisis. In this episode, Max talks to Damien Cole, independent candidate in the November 24th Victorian state election, about running a climate aware campaign. Damien has a refreshing, common sense approach to climate change, development of a fast-growing region, and putting the environment at the top of the list of electoral priorities. We loved this interview from Max, and it was so good we'll be bringing you part two of this extended interview next week. This marks a moment the Climactic team has been looking forward to from the beginning, the welcoming aboard of a new member of the burgeoning network, and we're so happy to be able to host stories from the Greater Geelong region. We are actively looking for more interviewers, in the capital cities, and regional areas. We're eager to train, assist, and work with the right people. Radio or interviewing not required, just a desire to converse with the everyday people working hard in our communities for a safe climate. Interested?
