  • BONUS: Sarah Wheeler: The Outback Long Ride
    Apr 24 2024
    In a bit over a week, in May 2024, Sarah Wheeler and her horses - Shifty and Sally - will set out on The Outback Long Ride, a 5,500km journey through Outback NSW and QLD honouring the lives of her late parents and raising funds and awareness for upper GI cancers through the Pancare Foundation and for her own charity, A Daughter's Way which will support families and individuals suffering tragic loss and grief. Sarah is one of four girls in the Wheeler family who've suffered through incredible heartache and grief after losing both their parents. Their mother Terri died from biliary cancer and their father Gavin died in 2010 suddenly and unexpectedly from an enlarged heart. Sarah says feeling broken and lost in the wake of losing two parents in such a short time and so young that, she just knew she wanted to do 'something meaningful and something that would help her to find focus and healing' while helping and inspiring others to do the same. For her, The Outback Long Ride is the answer to that soul searching and will spread awareness far and wide for her future endeavours of her own charity 'A Daughter's Way'; where she aims to create all expenses paid weekend to 7 day retreats, group camps or group expeditions run by trained mental health professionals, and developed by clinical psychologists and so much more for rural and regional families experiencing grief and loss in Australia. Sarah's looking forward to hopefully meeting lots of people along the way over the next 9-12 months as well as documenting her travels through photography that she's aiming to turn into a coffee table book, an exhibition and maybe even a documentary.

  • BONUS: Cara Spreadborough: An Ode to Liberty
    Apr 17 2024
    I first met Cara Spreadborough when we started talking about a sponsorship for our newsletter Company on Sunday’s. (So full disclosure, Cara’s label Sorority Clothing has been paying for a sponsorship of our newsletter for the last six weeks. ) I knew not much about Cara’s high end fashion boutique Inky and Moss in Roma QLD and nothing about her second online label Sorority Clothing. So we got chatting and I learned that most of the shirts in Sorority Clothing are made from Liberty Prints - big tick, huge tick for me. We started exchanging Liberty stories …… and then she told me the story of how the business came to be. She’s lost her identical twin sister years ago - and this was Cara’s Ode to her sister - and is a venture in which she feels a strong sense of spiritual guidance and good luck And then she started telling me about all the one-on-one attention and conversations she has with the people of Liberty in London. This is what this podcast is all about. A new clothing label born in Roma Queensland with a direct line to the people in charge of Liberty in London and with shirts manufactured at Lake Como in Italy. It happens, but not just in the cities. And we’re here to celebrate it. Thankyou to Rabobank Australia for its support of this series of Company. You can sign up to our free weekly newsletter here.

  • Jodie Goldsworthy: How to make family business, big business
    Apr 10 2024
    Jodie Goldsworthy is a co-founder and director of Beechworth Honey based in Beechworth, Vic. When Jodie and her husband Steven decided - out of the blue* - to take on a beekeeping venture of their own they had not a bee hive to thier name. It was starting from scratch. What they did have was four generations of heritage of family knowledge on how to manage bees and produce honey. Beechworth Honey is a first generation business with a fourth generation heritage. 30 years on their business is the second largest brand in the Australian Honey market - and the biggest family owned Honey company in Australia. Their ascent to this lofty high is built on hard work and a determined integrity to treat all aspects and people within the business how they would like to be treated themselves. Simple mantra. Big results. *There was never any encouragement nor plan for Jodie to follow in her family's beekeeping footsteps. For all she knew she was set to be a teacher. Thank you to Rabobank Australia for its support of this Series of the Company podcast.
