Elena Madden on the neighbour's chickens, the Korean language, and what really happened in hotel quarantine for a brand new family of four.
Description
Molly is sick of the wet season, but not before she has a decent whinge about an infected blister on her foot. Molly's TikTok algorithm is serving some weird stuff, and what's the name of that person who cooks for a living again?
This week's guest is Elena Madden who owns True North, a strategic communications and PR firm in Darwin.
While she’s Darwin’s PR queen, she’s a long way from Roxy Jacenko, living on five acres in Darwin’s rural area, a life full of camping, fishing the outdoors, and one giant German pointer with a taste for the neighbour's chickens.
She’s also a mum of two, deciding early on that the adoption route was the best option for them.
Now parents of two - Jesse and Harriet from South Korea, Elena shares the wild ride of adoption at a time when the entire globe was locked down, what it’s like being the parent of a child with high medical needs, and raising Territory kids without forgetting where they’re from.
