SMALL TALK: Have You Ever Been Called Too Much? With Anisa Nandaula
Anisa is champion slam poet turned successful stand up comedian who has opened for likes of Chelsea Handler.
In this Small Talk we chat about what it is like making a name for yourself in the comedy space, navigating Australian culture and humour after moving to Queensland from Uganda at eight years old, handling the love and making light of the awful comments on TikTok.
Oh, and considering Anisa is the Gen Z caption on the show 'Talkin About Your Gen', I also ask if she thinks Gen Z is being 'too much' or not.
Safe to say we cover a lot of ground!!

SMALL TALK: Why Is Gratitude So Hard — And So Powerful? With Dom Elissa
Small Talk is back!
It couldn't feel like a more perfect moment in these crazy times for such an important topic, gratitude.
In this episode I am lucky enough to sit down with Dominique Elissa - a model, founder of Self Dom, host of the Self Dom podcast, a pilates instructor and now a gratitude coach.
We hear not only about tools to implement gratitude and the science to back it, but Dom's personal story of finding this practice at her rock bottom. Also, the heartwarming and heartbreaking story of her mum keeping her gratitude journal while in palliative care and making it to her daughters wedding.
