Rebekah Muntelwit was raised in Northern Queensland, Australia. She was one of six children in the family home and further surrounded by an extended family living in the area. So moving down to the Gold Coast, as she did following high school, would have been considered by many to be a Big Move. According to Rebekah it was that move that gave her the courage and confidence to move yet again, this time to Vancouver, Canada with her partner, Ben French. In this interview we catch up with Rebekah only a few weeks after arriving in Canada. She seems to have relocated from the southern hemisphere to the northern in a steady rhythm that finds her already employed and enrolled in further studies for her chosen career. You can feel the ease within Rebekah as she takes herself out into the world. She acknowledges that understanding 'purpose' has helped her make the transition into a new segment of life.
Desiree Delaloye, originally from Switzerland, immigrated to Australia in 2001. She is well known for her amazing ability to illustrate and produce unique logos. The logos are easily recognisable as representative of the individual or business that they were created for. In this interview I asked what her process is to come up with these individualised images. You can find out more about her work as a graphic artist at Design-Arts. In recent years, Desiree's entrepreneurial efforts have also included healing products, which you can learn more about at Feather Light Productions. Her latest venture is with children's books, which she co-authors with Tanya Curtis. So naturally, she also decided to create a boutique publishing company, SunLight Ink Publishing, in order to print and distribute the publications. Listen to the interview to learn more about how they raised the money to donate 1700 books to Papua New Guinea's literacy program.
