PEOPLE OF INTEREST: Indigo Jorgensen (@indigojorg) Am I dating too much, or not enough? Two girls on opposite ends of the dating spectrum

01/10/2024 68 min 21 sec

Welcome back to another episode of the People of Interest Series from the girls at the Of Interest Podcast. These episodes are where we chat to people of interest to us…. And maybe you too.  On todays show: Kirra and her friend Indigo dive headfirst into a candid discussion about dating, love, and relationships. Despite sharing an open-minded perspective, these two bring vastly different experiences, views, and desires to the table, creating a dynamic conversation. Get ready for an unfiltered exchange as they explore their perceptions at this stage of life, revealing contrasting perspectives and shedding light on the diverse landscape of the dating scene. Join us for a raw and insightful discussion that dissects the complexities of modern romance and friendships amidst divergent viewpoints. This was recorded two months ago prior to traveling to the USA, and as Kirra edited this, it was interesting to see how even some of her thoughts have shifted around the topic upon revisiting it in the last couple of days post-her travels. It further highlights how our opinions constantly shift when exposed to new experiences and upon reflection! This episode was a big step outside her comfort zone but one she is super proud of! Indigo is a Gold Coast-based pilates, yoga, and strength instructor. She has recently started her own social community group where she hopes to form a community to foster more open discussions like this one!

WELCOME BACK to another episode of our OG ‘Of Interest’ Podcast series! It’s been a hot minute, but despite the long break both of us needed, our podcast brains have still been in full swing and we cannot wait to sit down and record the many episodes we have brainstormed over last few months behind the scenes. It is time to level up in 2023 (can’t believe we are already saying that) and we are so excited to bring you some topics that we are both incredibly passionate about, but are also a little bit outside our comfort zone. On Todays Show: Most importantly we kick off the episode with the popular Tik tok trend, and let loose and unpack each others icks (It get’s a bit heated). Secondly, we catch up on what both Emily and Kirra have been up to over the break! We recap our 2022 goals episode that we recorded with our first podcast guest Millie Craven, and also review our year as a whole and what our hopes, plans and goals are for 2023. This episode is a bit all over the place as we venture into multiple tangents, which is nothing out of the ordinary for the two of us, but it’s a good one! Go for a walk or drive and switch off the brains while you listen to this fun episode! We really appreciate the support.

WELCOME BACK to the People of Interest series from the girls at the Of Interest Podcast. These episodes are  where we chat to people of interest to us…and maybe you too.

Now, she is the co-founder and owner of Naked Harvest Supplements with her brother Coopa and hosts one of the most popular self-help podcasts in Australia. In taking action and sharing her story, Georgie is on a mission to re-shape stereotypes and provide women around the world with the tools they need to step out of the “mould” or “box” they occupy, take ownership of their lives, live unapologetically, dream BIG and ultimately...rise and conquer.  You can find Georgie here: Instagram & TikTok:  @georgiestevenson @nakedharvestsupplements @riseandconquer.podcast Websites:  www.georgiestevenson.net  www.nakedharvestsupplements.com We really appreciate your support.

02/09/2022 63 min 19 sec

***DISCLAIMER*** This episode discusses mental health issues regarding unhealthy relationships with food and fitness that may be sensitive to some listeners.  WELCOME to the Of Interest Podcast's newest series 'People of Interest' kicking off with our very first episode. We are both so excited to grow our podcast and be stepping outside our comfort zone and interviewing people of interest to us!!  On today's show: We welcome our very first People of Interest guest, the pocket rocket Grace Tooze, a 21-year-old Tasmanian girl who is nothing short of ambition and entrepreneurial talent. Within three years of finishing school, Grace has begun not one but three very different business ventures. In July 2020, Grace began 'Get Graced' a clothing line that immediately became popular. Grace pursued this until she realised this was not her passion and rebranded into 'Get Graced.Fit' in the beginning of 2021. Since then Grace's fitness platform has reached over 8k followers on Instagram along with her 66k Tik tok platform opening up about her mental health in regards to unhealthy habits with food and personal life struggles! Grace uses her current platforms as a virtual diary to reach out to other people who are experiencing similar issues and has found her niche in living a balanced lifestyle as a hustler. She also has just recently launched a new jewellery business (Lovestruck Lou) which has sparked popularity like her original Get Graced clothing line.  You can find Grace here: Instagram:  Get Graced.Fit - @getgraced.fit https://www.instagram.com/getgraced.fit/ Lovestruck Lou - @lovestruck_lou https://www.instagram.com/lovestruck_lou/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI7kgWCdf0buRUkBzVTQK9Q Website: https://linktr.ee/getgraced.fit Tik tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@getgraced.fit?_d=secCgwIARCbDRjEFSADKAESPgo8OSHH8s%2FqJB9VRzapeY4mzBkiiyEhoBky1J2TyCqA%2F%2FtU9TLr79LGzRPkF5yC5eOa%2FFckKJVbEm7DpRJzGgA%3D&checksum=931501c58544ab33f7c3c34ea65a0c110a4a7138977dccc3a837754c5ddfe0ed&language=en&sec_uid=MS4wLjABAAAAmRuqnXgiykhIMrU1A26n6fHNN6Mpy_Hh5_3PEV2Vx6lyKxZNWdEbfVZ1VwJFYbAp&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAA5g3vuJmUby_K286p1ET1LGjk4dZ_OBHv7tCpWl84TgRrCr9JVcpaSqQkyd3nUl5I&share_app_id=1233&share_author_id=6757135052331762693&share_link_id=8DD93798-D951-4CE3-85F7-6ECAE7F6BADD&tt_from=copy&u_code=3e4mmja3i6fj3&user_id=79290330348408832&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=copy&source=h5_m&_r=1 We really appreciate your support.

Welcome back to another episode of the Of Interest podcast (it is SO good to be back). Buckle up because it's a long one!!  On today's show: Emily puts her journalist skills to the test as she interviews Kirra on her recent 6-week work trip to the Kimberly's.

Kirra goes into detail about all the highs and lows (mainly highs) of the trip and reflects back on all the new experiences and learning curves she has discovered. As Kirra (myself) edited this podcast I apologise that you have to listen to me for 90% of the 53 minutes - we all know I love a chat! But I strongly encourage anyone listening to take on these kinds of opportunities, you will never regret it and you will learn so much from it!

AAAANNDDD WE'RE BACK (later than planned - as per usual). This is a long one, so get comfy, grab a cuppa or go out and get your steps in!  On today's show: Almost one year on, we discuss our experiences moving out of home for the first time. In 2020, Em moved to NSW for university. After only 4 weeks, however, COVID-19 kicked in and she had to return to Tasmania. Fast-forward 12 months and she was off again. This time, so was Kirra! Kirra moved from our home in Tassie up to the Gold Coast - also for uni, but mostly for the lifestyle. If you're thinking about moving out, whether that's down the street or away from everything you know, do it! As we discuss in episode 5, breaking the bubble won't come without challenges, but from our perspectives, it's totally worth it. We really appreciate your support.

Apologies AGAIN for the delay in the episode release. We are still getting the hang of this thing! This episode is a light-hearted slightly longer chat than usual. So grab your headphones and get your Of Interest pod walk in for the week! On today's show: We tell you our individual stories of visiting a psychic for the first time! We both decided to share this experience together when we were holidaying in Noosa back in July this year. We both loved this experience and thought you guys might find it 'of interest' to you. Although we went in a bit cynical, we came out on a crazy adrenalin rush! This episode contains a lot of laughs but also some discussion on our spirutual beliefs, queries, and opinions. We also discuss angel numbers, lucky objects and if you make it to the end listen out for some exciting news! We really appreciate your support. The best way to help grow our podcast is to click 'follow' on wherever you listen to your favourite podcasts, follow us on Instagram and of course, tell your mates about us! Thank you for listening and we will be back again with another episode soon. :)

Apologies for a small delay in this week's episode, but we're back!!!  On todays's show: we take you on our health and fitness journeys (journey - ew we know), discuss our relationships with food and how we are  influenced by the people and content we surround ourselves with.

Welcome to the first episode (hopefully one of many) of the Of Interest podcast - discussing all things of interest to us (and maybe you too)! On today's show: Get to know a little bit about Em & Kirra, what's happening in our lives right now, how we became friends and why we want to share our 'mad chats' with the big wide world. Because this is our test run, please bear with our shitty editing skills and Em's awful audio - we'll hopefully have a bit more of an idea about WTF we're doing in the next few weeks.  The best way to support us is to click 'follow' on wherever you listen to your fav podcasts, follow us on Instagram and, of course, tell your mates about us! Thanks for listening and we will be back very soon with another episode :)
