Why Can't You Just Get Over It? - with Mel Ree

Gooooood morning! Today's ep is a replay of one of our favourite chats with sis Mel Ree.

Mel is a Papua New Guinean Australian powerhouse! Mel trained as an actor at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts and has since found her strength as a storyteller in performance poetry. She utilises her incredible emotional capacity as an actor to deliver heart wrenching poetry that delves into topics of rising through our darkest moments, finding our true identity after trauma and the experience of being an ethnic artist and individual in a predominantly white country.
