Make Some Noise is not a mental health podcast. It’s also not an art podcast. Make Some Noise is not a prescription for happiness. Make Some Noise is conversations about prioritising creative expression as a tool for self actualisation.
Creative expression is an important part of staying connected to yourself and expressing your emotions in healthy ways. In times gone by creativity was an integral part of community life: we sang, we danced and we created (weaving baskets, creating costumes, etc) and these days it’s an after thought. Something we do if and when we finish everything else on our to-do lists.
Karly Nimmo is setting out to change that. She wants to bring what is seen as ‘frivolous’ and ‘indulgent’ to the forefront. Make it a priority. In Make Some Noise Karly explores whether there are legit links between how we live today and the epidemic levels of mental health issues we are currently experiencing.

Perfectionism and podcasting as a form of expression and activism
Today, on Make Some Noise we meet Julie Neale, a podcaster and founder of Mother's Quest. Julie honours both the meaning and the mess of life and parenthood and believes our children and youth challenge us to grow into our best selves. She is on a mission to live a truly E.P.I.C. life and, through her example, inspire her children to do the same. Her for-purpose and profit venture, Mother's Quest, provides inspiration, coaching and community so that mothers, and those who work with young people, can connect to support and resources, fulfil their unique purpose, and live their E.P.I.C. lives.
In this episode, Julie and Karly chat about podcasting as a tool of expression, activism and impact. They speak about perfectionism and inspire us with their stories.
