    Episode 23: Meet Dr. Monika Schott: Australian Writer, Researcher and Published Author
    Oct 9 2023
    Dr. Monika Schott is an Australian based writer and researcher. Life’s intricacies and curiosities inspire her to write and give voice to stories that haven’t been heard. She’s particularly interested in lost industrial communities and communities that have been isolated or segregated, and interpreting these stories of past communities before they’re lost forever. She once practiced as a metal artist and painter and as such, writes like an artist creating texture on metal or canvas. She wrote the social history of Melbourne’s first sewerage farm community as part of her PhD research into sewerage ghost towns and how these communities flourish in their abject margins. Her novel, ‘The Faraway Land of the House and Two Cows’, and song, ‘A Land Faraway’, were released in July 2022. Her latest book, ‘My Dad built me the best and wackiest cubby ever’ is a timely and compassionate story about a child and father navigating the dad’s mental health struggles, and is inspired by Monika’s own lived experience. The heart-warming chapter book is a gentle interpretation of what Monika observed within her own family, and is ideal for children aged 5-12 years. Credit: Dr. Monika Schott.

    Episode 21: Meet Dr. Simon Craig: Founder of PosMed, Clinician & Author of From Hurting to Healing
    Aug 18 2023
    Dr. Simon Craig has written a book 'From Hurting To Healing: Delivering Love to Medicine and Healthcare' where he outlines ways to improve the health system in Australia, but it is also relevant everywhere. The Senior Obstetrics and Gynecology clinician holds more than 30 years of experience in the public and private systems. He says healthcare has reached a crisis point and positive change is urgently needed. Dr Craig's book has been endorsed by fellow senior medical practitioners, administrators and university professors including Royal Children’s Hospital Professor Catherine Crock AM and University of Melbourne's Professor Dr. Susan Walker – who says Dr. Craig’s “voice ought to be heard” and his book “should be mandatory reading for everyone involved in providing care, from medical students to policymakers”.  Dr. Craig left the health system last year to concentrate on cultural change. He is now a Chief Executive of PosMed, a private company which promotes coaching an organizational culture change in hospitals. Credit: Dr. Simon Craig; PosMed.
