Talia Blank is a painter, poet, filmmaker, and incredibly deep thinker. For Talia, making art is like breathing. It isn’t something she thinks about. It pours out of her. And yet, when she had her first solo exhibition in New York, something she had dreamed of, it broke her heart. In our conversation, we speak about what it really means to be an artist. The vulnerability that creativity demands, and how exposing that can feel when shared publicly. The maxims she lives by, the rituals that sav...

Big French Energy
It’s halfway through the year. A lot has happened, but it feels like just the beginning. This week, Matteo and I sat down to record a chat, reflecting on Juneuary from our new, empty home in Sydney. After 15 months in living limbo, it feels wildly significant. Like a big exhale. We began the month in the South of France, our favourite pocket of the world. I was clinging to that trip like a lifeline. Matteo was carrying it like a weight. And yet, we both found it unexpectedly freeing. On...

A Dark Room and My Imagination with Jonno Seidler
I’ve wanted to chat to Jonno Seidler since 2022. I was standing in a queue at Palermo Airport, waiting for a flight back to London, when a friend sent me an excerpt from his memoir, It’s a Shame About Ray. I was immediately captivated by his writing, his honesty, and his bravery. I grew up around Jonno but reading his memoir, I realised there was so much I didn't know. His experience of bipolar disorder, his dad’s struggles with depression, the shame that surrounded both, and the role that mu...

Hair is Everything with Madeleine Gottlieb
This week I spoke with Madeleine Gottlieb — an award-winning director, producer, screenwriter, and one of my oldest friends. I met Mads when I was five. She was the smartest person I’d ever met, with the bluest eyes and the most commanding presence. We were a couple of drama kids. And listening back to this conversation on a walk this week, I realised, we still are. We talk about morning rituals, meditation, ADHD, therapy, why Mads’ word for 2025 scares her, and how cutting off all her hair a...

Going Analogue
When Matteo and I spent two months in Puglia at the end of last year, living in a sleepy seaside town, we had a weekend ritual: a long walk by the sea, swimming and reading at Lo Scalo, spaghetti vongole and a spritz, a gelato along the promenade, and a movie on the couch. Off our phones, away from the rest of the world, we could switch off. It was incredible. I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately—less about Puglia, more about the presence we were able to cultivate there. Il dolce far nien...

I want to be brave like Bob Dylan
There’s a scene in A Complete Unknown I can’t stop thinking about. Bob Dylan steps on stage at the Newport Folk Festival in ’65. Thousands and thousands of people chant his name. They came to hear the songs they know. To see the Dylan they know. But Dylan has moved on. He picks up his electric guitar and plays his new music. The crowd boos. They throw things. Festival organisers try to cut the sound. It’s uncomfortable to watch. I caught myself thinking, Just give them what they want. But he ...

Designing a Life That Feels Like You with Nimisha Gupta
After seven years at luxury fashion house Zegna, Nimisha Gupta walked away from the safety of a big role to rediscover herself—and her joy. In this week’s episode of Between the Lines, we talk about making bold career leaps, finding your way back to creativity, and building a life that feels like yours. We also dive into the rituals that help Nimisha stay inspired—including why she takes a bath at 2pm every day (iconic). And, of course, her word for 2025. I loved this conversation with Nimish...

Anxiety and the Artist's Date
My earliest memories are anxious ones. Clinging to my mum’s legs as a child. Hiding under a laundry basket when people popped in. Waking up at 5 AM, putting on my school uniform, and sitting there for three hours—because I was terrified of being late. For most of my life, anxiety was my default state. And then last year, driving from Milan to Umbria, Matteo and I were listening to a podcast about anxiety when he paused it and asked—How is your anxiety? To my surprise, I said...

The Rickoning with Grace O’Neill
Not long ago, I sat down with Grace O’Neill in her Kitchen in London, and we recorded a chat. Grace is a writer. The former editor of Elle Australia. The co-host of After Work Drinks. And one of the most important people in my life. We met during lockdown—Grace and Zach in Apartment B, Matteo and I in Apartment D. The pandemic turned us, and our neighbour Lena (Apartment C), from strangers into family. Grace and I have spent hours walking through Holland Park, talking about the messy reality ...

Does it charm you?
Matteo and I sat down to talk about redesigning our life in Sydney—finding new rituals, navigating productivity shame, starting therapy, and having the courage to be ourselves. We share the Big Little Things we’re learning and why, in the end, it all comes down to one question: Does it charm you?

Catching ideas with David Lynch
For as long as I can remember, I’ve woken up early. I used to resist it. But lately, I’ve realised it’s a secret part of the day—a time to catch ideas. In this week’s pod, I talk about protecting your creative flow, the art of deep work, and the biggest thing I learnt from David Lynch’s 2.5-hour masterclass. Would love to hear what resonates.

Stop planning, start the podcast
A few weeks ago, I took my brother for breakfast and traded coffee and eggs for advice. I told him everything—my podcast vision, the name, the look and feel. I talked for 40 minutes. And then I asked him for a strategy. Then he looked at me and said: "You love the planning. The mood boarding, the strategy, the world-building. But while you’re doing all that, you’re not making the podcast. Stop planning. Start the podcast." Annoying, because he was right. I thought I was moving forward, but re...

Some places you live in, other places live in you
I love January, but I found this one hard. Not because of No Plans Jan—that gets easier every year. But because it’s been a period of transition. Matteo and I are back in Sydney. We’re staying in Sydney. And that still feels difficult to say out loud, even though it feels true. This month, I’ve been thinking a lot about place. The place you live, and how you live within it. How to make space for what matters. How to find flow. How to cultivate resonance (my new favourite word). And how to pra...

My word for 2025 is
On January 1st, Matteo and I each took out our One Word Journals and started writing. Guided by the book, we reflected on 2024, reconnected with what’s important, and set an intention for the year ahead. In this chat, we talk about our words for 2025, why Matteo changed his word, and why I stuck to mine. Along the way, Matteo also drops a bomb I wasn’t quite ready to share.I hope you enjoy listening! And I’d love to know: what is your word for 2025?JYK 🤍One Word Journal: https://www...

A crazy, chaotic, beautiful year
This week, Matteo and I sat down to reflect on 2024. It was a year that began with an eviction from our Notting Hill flat and ended by the seaside in Puglia, Italy. In between, there was a whirlwind of change — a “move” to Milan, a retreat to the forests of Sweden, and an unexpected chapter living in the green heart of Umbria. Along the way, we wrote a book that we’re so proud of.It was a year of unknowns and constant pivots. And yet, it’s been one of the most transformative and beautifu...

Trusting the artist within
At the beginning of last year, I was in a creative rut. I knew I wanted to evolve my art but had no idea where to begin. I was terrified I’d never create anything worthwhile again and felt paralysed by indecision. In this episode, I share how ‘play’ (my One Word for 2023) taught me to trust myself, and reconnect with the joy of expression, creativity, and life. JYK 🤍

Why do you do it?
For years, I was living on autopilot, completely unaware of how disconnected I had become. One simple question changed everything and fundamentally changed the course of my career and life. It led me to quit my job, rediscover painting, and set me on a path toward meaning rather than validation. This episode is just six minutes long, but the truth is, it took me days! JYK 🤍

Affirmations for every day
The concept of journalling was always confusing to me; it felt elusive, awkward, and just another thing to do. So I resisted it for years. But the noise in my head kept getting louder. Matteo kept nudging me to try ‘positive affirmations’, and then my sister sent me a podcast that gave me the final push I needed. Now, it’s something I do every single day. Not because I “should,” but because it’s a simple, quick practice that enriches my life in so many ways. It’s helped my confidence, self-es...

The art of focus
How do we stay focused when our attention is pulled in a thousand directions? This week, I’m sharing my frustrations with my phone, exploring the hidden cost of distraction on our energy and creativity, and discussing the simple practices that are helping me make space for the things that matter most to me right now. If, like me, you often feel scattered or overwhelmed, this might be for you. There’s so much to unpack when it comes to attention, and I worry that we’re so addicted to tech, we’...

Breaking through self-sabotage
If you’re on the go, listen on Spotify 🕊 This week, I stepped out of my comfort zone and sat down to record this video. I’m currently in Umbria, working on a podcast, which is pushing me to face my fears and navigate the unknown. It’s been both exciting and scary. In this video, I share what it feels like to confront resistance, the discomfort of starting something new, and the book that’s helping me break through self-sabotage. If you’ve ever felt held back by perfectionism or fear, this mig...
