The Daizy Project

Prompted by the Wheeler Centre's latest Signal Boost Competition I created this 3-minute audio response to the theme 'space' - exploring spaces that influenced the way I am today.

1) Being a 12-pound baby born in regional NSW nicknames "Baby Elephant" by the nurses.
2) Christmas and Camping
3) St Kilda - Moving Out
4) Bangkok, supporting refugees
5) Himalayas, finding peace. 

These are explored in more depth in my memoir which you can pre-order here.
Your pre-orders mean the world to me and keep me accountable on finishing this book project which I've been working on for a few years.
You can also follow my candid writing journey over on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/quarterlifecrisisco/ 

or subscribe to my newsletter where I sometimes share things I never publish online  (scroll to the bottom) https://daizymaan.com/

I'm not sure if I'll be successful in this competition, but the process of creating it has been wonderful - remember it doesn't matter if you don't get the validation you seek - create because you can, because our voices, our art & our stories matter. 

A huge shout out to my new friend Snehil from Wolverhampton who gave me advice on the sound aspects of this.
