Episode 13 - Rita Doherty | Mind and Body Focus - Remember to take a Deep Breath

In this Episode we explore beyond the Pop word of Mindfulness, but what it means to be living in a time with so much anxiety and uncertainty.  Learn to stop, take a deep breath and understand it really is ok to enjoy some of the slower pace we have right now.  It's also so important to keep your mind and body active to stay healthy.  Set yourself time to get up and out, sure in Melbourne right now we only get one hour a day, but maybe break it into 3 x 20 minute sessions to keep active.  It is also more than okay to allow yourself to feel the emotions, close your eyes and really acknowledge how you are feeling and reach out to someone for support.  We are not in this alone, we can ask for help! We really hope this episode with Rita, gives you a great insight to this and so much more! Enjoy... Stay Safe, Stay Home and Stay Sane! We love you all...

Episode 12 - Nish and Julie | So & Co Events - Keeping it in the Family

Nish first met Julie while dating her brother Bobby... Fast Forward a few years after styling up a storm for various family events and this dynamic duo have built a wonderful partnership and business.  Styling for these ladies is all about friendship, fun, wow factors and putting a smile on everyone's faces.  From styling events, expanding into their own prop hire business and now looking forward to a full service from entrance to exit, the plans are endless.  Tune in to hear how they make their special partnership work.

Episode 11 - Melissa Fahey | The Life of a Marriage Celebrant

Melissa has been working with couples about to tie the knot for the past 30 years... firstly in the jewellery industry helping select the right rings and for the past 10 years as a Celebrant.  Grab your favourite bevvy, sit back and enjoy this episode with us as find out what really goes on, and why couples choose a Civil Celebrant over the more traditional ceremonies.  The laughing alone throughout this interview is sure to be an indicator of the differences one can expect! This episode was recorded the day before the Victorian Government announced that weddings are now banned until 13th September 2020. I think you will agree with us that as Melissa says, the restrictions of all wearing a mask during the ceremony, with a maximum of 5 including the celebrant was becoming somewhat challenging to accept for that very special day!  Now many couples out there are dealing with all those hopes and dreams of becoming married, on hold for a little while longer and we hope that they will get to once again have a few more family members and guests very soon to share their love!

Episode 10 - Hosts Vinh & Nikki | Lockdown No. 2 - How You Doing?

In this episode we discuss what it means to be back in lockdown.  How are circle of influences are doing and how we feel.  We talk about the new business ideas popping up, how our own lives have changed and what we miss most about not working our usual crazy busy Event Lives.  Is the slower pace working for us, have we learnt to be grateful of the little things - You Bet.  We also acknowledge the differences of what this means to the different age groups too. Sit back and enjoy!  Cant wait to share with you all at the next event in person, for now we hope Talkin' Events is bringing you some connection to the industry.
