We are Helen and Maya, the founders of Featured in Fifteen. We wanted to create a community arts project that celebrated the FFabulous rich mix of real people with an inspirational story to share in 15 minutes.This podcast in a mixture of FFeatures past and FFuture sharing conversation with us on different themes that form part of life. We will also share some of the live event we host in to give you a taste of what the live event is like.The FF event concept was born around the FFeeling we needed to create a space for positivity and empowerment of our community. We sat and thrashed out ideas around 'What would be our perfect night out?' the answer was - an evening of interesting talks from various local curators, a drink with friends and somewhere we didn't have to travel the earth for. We both have a genuine respect for TED talks and so the idea of providing an audience with more than one speaker (with a drink in hand) in a considered time frame (15 minutes) felt like an interesting challenge for us...so that's when Featured in Fifteen came to life..
