    Lily High on Life - Sally Capp, Lord Mayor of Melbourne
    Sep 29 2023
    Lord Mayor of Melbourne, Sally Capp is a ‘can do’ kind of girl ! She grew up with the attitude that anything and everything is possible, and maintains it today, instilling it in others. Sally has had many firsts throughout her career and shares those highlights, as well as some character building challenges in this very honest and wonderfully inspiring interview. Solid, down to earth and a team player in all her leadership roles, Sally has gone from strength to strength through confidence and innovation, with an inner guidance that makes her naturally stand out. She doesn’t follow the pack or shy away from a challenge. She has created new paradigms and pathways to both career and personal goals. Inspired by both parents’ entrepreneurial examples. She married her childhood sweetheart and has two wonderful boys that look like carrying on in their parents’ footsteps. It is little wonder she brings so much fun and light into the very important and enormous role she has chosen as Melbourne’s Lord Mayor.

  • Lily High on Life - Sue Smethurst

    Lily High on Life - Sue Smethurst
    Sep 29 2023
    Sue Smethurst is the epitome of 'the better life gets, the better life gets'. She does not conceive of something she cannot achieve, it is just a matter or working out how to accomplish it. From a childhood in rural Australia she has met and entertained the rich and famous that you clamour to read about in your favourite magazines, she has hob nabbed with them all and then some. Her career achievements are formidable, from editor of New Idea at the age of 26 to developing a skin care range sold in Henri Bendels and sold off to an International conglomerate. Sue has managed to publish books, raise 2 children while remaining totally grounded and a true blue 'nothing fazes me' Aussie. We met about 20 years ago in L.A. and it was as if that was just yesterday. As impressed as I am with all Sue's accomplishments, I love her unassuming real values and family priorities.

    Lily High on Life - Sophie Steiner
    Sep 29 2023
    A very special interview with my mother, Sophie. She was born in Poland, grew up in Russia and was blessed to come to Australia. She reads voraciously and is very outspoken about world events. Coming out of a communist system into the Democracy that is Australia, she is very worried about what she has seen happening around her in recent years. She has her testimony recorded in the Shoah Project, but today I speak to her about the differences in life she experienced in her lifetime. Things we take so much for granted today.

    Lily High On Life – Religion, Evan Thornley
    Sep 29 2023
    My first interview with Evan Thornley covered many aspects of his life, but left a lot to still discover. He was kind enough to sit down for a second interview about his religious beliefs and expand on why with a very full family and business life, he made the huge commitment to convert to Judaism. We also made time to discuss his current business venture on different levels. Certainly making money but also giving back to the community.
