Seeds for a Meaningful Life

In this special episode of Echoes of Us, I sit down with Dr. Michelle McQuaid — award-winning well-being expert, LinkedIn mental health thought leader, and loving granddaughter of an well-respected Australian farmer — to explore how the seeds planted by those before us shape the lives we lead today.

Michelle reflects on the lessons passed down from her grandfather’s fields to her global work in well-being, leadership, and systems change. Together, we unpack how legacy storytelling isn’t just about preserving the past — it’s about finding clarity, resilience, and new ways forward.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that the stories we tell and the wisdom we share plant seeds for meaningful, connected, and emotionally well lives.
