The Drawn to your Story Podcast is Available on

you can also listen and watch as the interview gets reimagined into an illustration on Youtube.

What’s this podcast about?

Well, I Looove to talk and I Looooooove to draw. So I thought why not combine them both into a podcast where I reimagine the interviews into illustrations. It will be fun to pull out one snippet or one overarching theme to create a personalized illustration after the interview is completed. It really gets my juices flowing to hear how everyone has taken on this crazy world in their own unique way. I want to hear all of the crazy shenanigans, big and small decisions that were made, and how people have overcome obstacles in their lives. I want us to have a good yarn, some laughs, and hopefully learn something. Perhaps we might even add a tool to our own life arsenal.

EP#10 with LIAM O’BRYNE

Wow! What an episode. When you put Liam's line of " I know we shouldn't do it but that doesn't mean we can't do it" into the context of a sweet cheeky inner kid that has a lust for fun and adventure you'll get the feel for this podcast. Liam takes us to his first job interview which is more mysterious than a blind date, on a his impromptu solo bike trip through China and Mongolia and the way he burned the candle at both ends to be with his girlfriend (now wife) by flying back and forth from Tasmania to London. His willingness to say yes in the moment is truely incredible.
Let's dig in.

EP#9 with STORM LEWINGTON

On this episode we have a conversation with Storm Lewington. Storm is the type of guy you could meet in a bar and after one drink you would feel like you’re best of friends. We touch on his travels, jobs and his love of boats. Honestly, just his travel stories could fill up a few episodes. Storm has lived a full life having some amazing highs and some tragic lows. On this episode I asked Storm to come on and talk about three tragic events from his life and how he was able to move forward after them. I'm truly grateful for how open and honest Storm is throughout this episode.

EP#8 with KATHRYN LEFROY

Kathryn is a blast and loves all the words. Kathryn loves words so much that she gets up at the crack of dawn to write columns, case studies for big tech companies, blogs, screen plays and (very excitedly) her first book titled Alex and the Alpacas Save the World. I really enjoyed how open and honest Kathryn was about sharing with us the journey of having her first book published.

EP#7 with SIMON WILSON

Simon is a fantastic artist and I was so amazed with how much he has been able to pack into his life. Do you know what it's like to vacation at a nudist colony?

EP#6 with KELLY CANBY

Through the pod we find out who, what and when influenced her creativeness and her go-getter attitude to life.
Let's get into it.
