Study Melbourne Speed Friending Event

Since My values are built around the 4 C’s: Community, Collaboration, curiosity, and Creativity, and last week, I truly got to witness two of them in action. Last week, I had the chance to facilitate and be part of the Study Melbourne Speed Friending event on R U OK? Day. It was such a heartfelt moment where I got to share my story, talk about the idea behind my podcast, and connect with some truly amazing people. Big shoutout to Filipe and Rhea for being so honest and vulnerable in sharing their experiences of building friendships abroad and looking after their wellbeing—it was inspiring to listen and learn from you. A huge thank you to the Study Melbourne team for organising this wonderful event and for giving me the opportunity to be part of it. Here’s to creating more safe spaces like this where we can connect, share openly, and support each other.
