So first up please be kind. Tul and I had the smart idea of 'practising' podcasting and interviewed one and other. People were wanting to know a bit more about us so here it is one of those recordings - pre covid. This is me (Sarah) sitting down with my best friend and business partner Tully Humphrey.Tully has recorded quite a few podcasts in her time mainly speaking about starting a business and her eating disorder. We touch on these things but also I wanted you to get to know the other side of T and get her to look back at other things in life that have made her who she is today.So again please take it easy on this one.

It was a lot of fun.I (Tully) even learnt a few things about the girl that I call my best friend, business partner and now co-host of Curious Conversations. I sat down with my my go to wing women Sarah. Who let’s say is not very active on the socials, which I secretly love about her. We had a lot of listeners requesting an episode where we could get to know her a little deeper. We touch on a serious motorbike accident that she had as a teen, that nearly had her lose a leg and how it changed her life for the best.Sarah is the kind who has a really positive outlook on life.

This weeks conversation is a conversation Tully and I have wanted to have for a many weeks. We spend a lot of time based in LA and one of our closest friends there Steph is Black. Steph comes from an amazing family and works as chief of staff at a tech company.When the Black Lives Matter movement gained world wide attention in June we saw global rallying and the power of people. The whole world had paused for covid and something that has been happening for generations in the USA, police brutality, was thrusted in front of us. No longer would the world be distracted by life and turn a blind eye to what is happening and has happened over the years. It was a time to educate ourselves and check ourselves - how have we lived in the past and how do want to move forward into our future?As white person and a friend we both wanted to be there for Steph and all our black friends but we didn’t know how to support a black friend. We reached out but we knew it was a time for space but support - was the black tile enough? Should I take it down? We were very confused of what the right thing to do was to support this motion especially during corona and lockdowns.Tully and I both wanted to educate ourselves on the movement and the history of black lives so we could gain some perspective and moving forward how can we be there for Steph, our black friends and in general a better person. This chat means a lot to Tul and I. We appreciate Steph so much on being so vulnerable, raw and honest in speaking about experiences being a black women in LA and her time also living in Australia.  Can we comprehend being run off the road just because of the colour of my skin? Hell no. Can we comprehend knowing growing up police will treat us differently. No way. But Steph chats about these which actually happened to her. She gives us perspective on how it actually feels to be black.  We walked away from this conversation with Steph open to a world we never knew existed.  NOTES:Movies & documentaries:- They hate you givehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTKo2SVDwxwAva DuVernay - 13th (Netflix)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6IXQbXPO3ILA 92 (Netflix)https://www.netflix.com/title/80184131People:Angela Rye - @angelaryeAttorney, CNN political commentator podcasterhttps://soundcloud.com/ononewithangelaryeFollow Steph here@stephaniematsubaStay up to date with the Tully & Sarah @tullyhumphrey @spasini To shop Tully Lou visitwww.tullylou.com.au  Hosted on Acast.

This week we sit down and chat with designer and pocket rocket Effie Kats. She is full of life, wisdom and an upbeat energy that draws you in. At the age of 23 Effie started hit brand Zachary the label which saw it girls Kendell, Kylie and Gigi wearing it on the regular. Within 4 years though and a few not so great business decisions Zachary the label went into administration. Effie talks about walking away from her baby, diving deep into old personal wounds and what it was like coming out the other side launching her own personal brand Effie Kats custom tailoring for women at an affordable price and her new base brand.After chatting about business failing, lessons learnt and what business looks like now we chat about life in general - what growing up was like and what gives Effies life balance now.  Show notes: Book: How to heal yourself when no one can hereFollow Effie here@effiekatsCheck outEffie KatsBayse brand Stay up to date with the Tully & Sarah @tullyhumphrey @spasini To shop Tully Lou visitwww.tullylou.com.au @tullylou Check out @FeFi_au - we simplify investing & educate women on stocks & crypto to close the financial gap. Ready to start buying crypto?

This weeks episode we turned our group text thread into a curious conversation. To be honest it sucks being in Melbourne right now. We talk about lockdown, what we've been up to, politics, the economy, hospitality basically anything that's been happening in the news in Melbourne we talk about because that's what our message thread looks like also. We have to admit though we do go a bit easy on our thoughts and opinions in this conversation. We'd rate this an MA, group message we can get up to R18+.We recorded this before we knew that we'd be in a further lockdown until end of September (stage 4) not seeing friends and family and to be honest with the 'road map' out who knows when we will be at the next stage. I know we're over it but we're proud of how much Victorians have endured. We will get out of this soon, we will never take for granted going to a friends place or being able to sit down at a restaurant.Throw in a few of your Q&A's, some very random but very interesting, at the end and that's a wrap for the girl gang convo.
