200 EPISODES! Helene Thomas in conversation with Michelle Cox

Release Date:

Today I get the tables turned on me as we hit a wonderful milestone here on the One Question Podcast. I’m lucky enough to once again sit down with Helene Thomas, a Hobart based creative audio producer with a PhD in journalism. You may recall that I had Helene on the show a few months ago - you can have a listen to that interview it’s #189 on the show - it’s such a great conversation. But this time I connect with Helene for a different reason. You see Helene considers every story as a living spirit. This is why she takes her time and goes deep into the lives of others as they share their life worlds with her. She has been producing audio features and documentaries for 17 years and learned very quickly that telling people’s stories carries a huge responsibility, so she decided to make this the topic of her PhD study. Through her research, she developed a practice that she calls Journalism of the Heart. It’s where you slow down and take the time to get to know people so that it leads to deeper human connections and better stories. Helene’s passion is crafting people’s stories into intimate audio experiences and this is precisely why I felt she would be the perfect person to interview me for this very special 200th episode.It’s a frank and honest interview- I was a little nervous before we started as I know Helene has a knack for bringing out stories we often keep under wraps. And as you’re about to hear.. she certainly caught me off guard with a few of her questions. This is a conversation about life, love, and the love of life and it’s ultimately a story about living a life more aligned with self and creative reinvention. I hope you enjoy it. For more information about Helene, check out these places;-Over the past year she has been engaged with a variety of storytelling projects with elders in the community and LGBTQIA+ folk (Pridefinder and working with academics on an Australian Research Council funded project).Website: https://www.thewayfinder.com.au/Instagram: @thewayfinderstorystudio/Linkedin: Helene ThomasHead to michellejcox.com for more information about the ONE QUESTION podcast, your host or today’s guestsConnect with Michelle on Linkedin here:- @MichelleJCoxConnect with Michelle on Instagram here:- @michellejcoxConnect with Michelle on Facebook here - @michellejcoxAND, if you have a burning topic you’d love people to talk more about, or know someone who’d be great to come on the One Question podcast, please get in touch;- hello@michellejcox.com
