Send us your thoughts questions or feedback!Episode 2 — Impassioned: Finding Your Passion — A Journey of Self-Discovery and ExcitementIn this second installment of A Soulful Mom’s Wisdom, we continue building on the monthly theme of impassioned, shifting the focus from purpose into something more visceral—passion, excitement, and the energy that pulls you toward what feels alive inside of you.This episode is an invitation to notice what lights you up. Not what you think you should enjoy, not what looks good on paper, but what genuinely creates curiosity, energy, or momentum in your everyday life. Passion is often subtle at first—it shows up in patterns, preferences, and the things you keep returning to without being told.I share personal examples of what excites me in my own journey, not as a prescription, but as a mirror. The intention is to help you begin recognizing your own signals of enthusiasm and engagement. Because sometimes passion doesn’t arrive as a single dramatic calling, it builds through repeated moments of interest and alignment.We then move into a reflective space: identifying what naturally energizes you. What do you find yourself drawn to without forcing it? What topics make you lose track of time? What conversations leave you feeling expanded rather than drained?We also anchor this exploration in the importance of consistency. Passion without consistency remains an idea; passion with consistency becomes direction. The challenge is not just discovering what you love, but choosing to return to it, especially when motivation fluctuates.A central guiding voice in this episode comes from Oprah Winfrey, whose insight reinforces the relationship between persistence and purpose-driven passion. Her words serve as a reminder that clarity often emerges through continued engagement, not passive waiting.This episode closes with a gentle but direct encouragement: begin the process now. Not later, not when everything feels perfectly aligned—but now, through small acts of attention and experimentation.A question to carry forward: “What consistently pulls your attention without being forced—and what would happen if you followed it more intentionally?”Theme: ImpassionedQuote:“Follow your passion.

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
