Ashley Feraude in conversation with Melanie Gibbons who heads up Elms Communications, an agency specialising in complex and strategic government comms.
Melanie has been in love with comms since she started her degree at the University of Canberra and, during her career across the public service, has grown a specific skillset that allows her to understand and unlock challenging issues through a detailed knowledge of audience behaviour and the media/political environment.
Mel's passion for comms has also meant that she taught her dog how to communicate in English using push-button words. Yes, he pushes ‘play’ all the time.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
