Kai Noonan tells the story of resigning from her job and driving across the country on a journey of discovery.

Kai was working at a refuge service for women and children through the depths of the Covid-19 pandemic. Realising she was burnt out and that she didn’t have any energy left to give, she decided to resign, pack her things in a camper van, and head on a 3-month journey across Australia to meet people from different walks of life and make a podcast about human connection. People around her thought she was slightly mad. Kai’s story is about life on the road, what it did for her soul, and how it was even more uncomfortable for her than the average person because she was also pregnant.

Jim Grey explains why he left the house one morning and joined the Australian Army without telling his partner, or anyone for that matter.

The decision Jim made that day would see him become a soldier for more than 30 years. He served in Afghanistan, the Solomon Islands, and around the world. What he didn’t realise is that he wouldn’t be the only one making sacrifices. His decision to enlist would see him spend a total of seven years away from his family. How he, his partner, and his sons came to terms with that, and how he accepted that he wasn’t needed at home, isn’t something that happened overnight.
