Today’s episode is a really fun one with Marco Gliori, chatting all about the things he loves most - the arts, culture and connection to family and community. Marco has a wonderful knack for inspiring others by sharing his optimism and enthusiasm. Regarded as one of Australia’s premier performers of bush verse, Marco is also a councillor for the Southern Downs Regional Council.
Listen in as Marco shares a selection of his original bush poetry as well as stories and thoughts about:
- connection to community
- identity and pride of place
- how volunteering and getting involved with the arts and creativity can help you get through tough times
- how sharing your story can help develop empathy, collaborative problem-solving and improve your own and other people’s mental health and well-being
- local options to get creative
- learning from past generations about tackling tough times
- practical things you can do to recover, build resilience and inspire hope after natural disasters and the COVID-19 pandemic
- what we can learn from farmers about how to deal with things out of our control (like the weather) by accepting, adapting and looking at each situation as an opportunity
- how he stays optimistic by focusing on family, friends and volunteers who are willing to have a go at something little that can build into something big
- how you can create your own event or project by developing a plan, connecting with others, asking for information and support, and backing yourself
- how you can add value to your life by being part of something rather than nothing, whether it’s in your own home or in the wider community, and
- communities are strengthened by community groups who bring people together for mateship
