Even the bright lights of Eurovision, and a captive audience in former US president Barack Obama and talkshow supreme Oprah Winfrey, cannot overwhelm Aussie pop star Jessica Mauboy. The audience that inspires her is at home, in Darwin, and much smaller than the audience for the annual song contest – her family and the late grandmother whom she never met but who lends her name to Mauboy’s new album Hilda. In this week’s feature, you won’t find big statements from the songstress about adoring fans or performing for Obama – blood is thicker than a celebrity guest list. ●

FIRST PERSON

““I am Nathan Williamson ” … an AFL umpire and high school teacher My dad was an umpire in country Western

Australia when we were kids. I used to carry the ball and his water bottle out for him and grew up fascinated with umpiring.

From then on, when I got pocket money, I’d buy whistles – I kept a container full of them – and I’d be out in the backyard blowing the whistle and bouncing the ball.

I started umpiring junior football in 2005 when I was 12, one year earlier than what’s usually allowed, because I was pestering them so much.

From umpiring junior footy, I went on to senior footy and in 2010 I was asked to umpire what’s called a country week championship competition.

From that competition, the West Australian Football League umpiring department gave me a

call and said, “We’d love you to come down and trial for us”, which was the pathway to where I wanted to get to in the AFL, so that was awesome.

In 2015 and 2016, I was an AFL rookie, which meant that I sat on the bench as an emergency umpire for all of the WA games.

It was incredible because I got to meet the guys I’d looked up to since I was a kid – I was tying my shoelaces in the same room as them and walking out onto Subiaco Oval.

In 2017, I debuted in AFL umpiring in round one.

I umpired 22 games that year and sat on a bench for a final. Last year, I did another 22 games and umpired my first final – GWS versus Sydney.

I’m so grateful to run around with the green shirt on and live what my dream was when I was a kid.

As told to

M E G C R AW F O R D ●

Ph o t o

I’m also a high school teacher. I teach years 7, 8, 9 and 10 at all-boys’ secondary college. Basically, I work two full-time jobs.

It’s a fantastic outlet – it’s flat out being a teacher.

When I’m teaching class I’m in the moment with them. Plus, as you can imagine at a boys’ school in Essendon, the kids absolutely froth football.

As an umpire, decision-making is our number one KPI, followed by how you manage the game, but in order to be in a good position to make those decisions and make sure you get in nice and quick, you need to be very fit and run when the game needs you to.

It’s a hard job – you’ve got to make so many decisions and a lot of them don’t necessarily involve blowing the whistle or calling play on. ●

COVER STORY

Reconnecting with her family has helped pop star Jessica Mauboy sing the stories that matter.

No place like home

J

essica Mauboy was ready to quit music six years ago. She had fallen out of love with song writing and it took heading back to family in Darwin to find her voice again.

The two-time ARIA Award-winning singer/ songwriter, who first came to our attention as a 16-year-old contestant and runner-up on Australian Idol in 2006, never let her ambition to succeed fall by the wayside; and the past 13 years is proof of all the hard work.

She has worked tirelessly to achieve 15 top 20 singles and five top 10 albums and is also the first

non-European solo artist to represent Australia at Eurovision in 2018.

But it was while trying to write her fourth studio album that the 30-year-old hit a creative block. Sure there has been a live album and two soundtracks for The Sapphires and The Secret Daughter TV series, a tour with Beyonce, studio time with Ricky Martin, singing for Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama – the achievement list goes on – but Mauboy found herself trying to figure out what was next.

“I was done with pop songs and writing about clubbing with friends. I mean it was fun, but I had

to figure where do I go next,” says Mauboy of her moment of realisation.

“It took six years to understand myself as an artist and figure what my storytelling would be and what I wanted to sing about,” she adds.

Mauboy feared the reaction from her fans and record label, Sony, but admits she had to take that risk.

“I was walking into my own unknown territory I didn’t understand,” she says.

“And then I found the piece that was missing in my life was family [who live in Darwin while she’s

Wo r d s

based in Sydney]. I had to be re-establish that to fuel my creative fire again.”

Her first album in six years – Hilda, due on October 18 – is named after her maternal grandmother whom she never met. It serves as a connection to family and what’s she feels she’s missed out on while building her identity as one of Australia’s most loved artists.

Part-existential crisis, part-soul searching, Mauboy was trying to nail her bigger picture while framing it on her terms.

She first learnt about her maternal grandmother Hilda, from the Indigenous tribe KuKu Yalanji, at the age of 11.

Mauboy grew up with three older sisters, Sandra, Jenny and Catherine, and one younger, Sophia, in a close-knit family who went to church – often singing with her paternal grandmother Harriet in

the sunset on the beach with my family in Darwin, the salt water and going for a swim in it,” she recalls.

Now, Mauboy is setting herself boundaries and goes home twice a year, on her birthday and Christmas or New Year’s depending on her schedule.

She’s all about self-care, always travels with a humidifier, does regular meditation and makes sure she rings her family on an almost-daily basis. “[It’s] a simple exchange with my family that always calms any struggle I might be having,” she says.

“I was making myself so busy with my music, but I was missing all the soulful spirited stories with family. Having home-cooked meals and working around the house with Dad and not being able to do that had a huge effect on me.”

She wrote the song Little Things after an

“I realised I wanted to become a nurturer for my own mother and how important it is for all of us to lean on her, but she needs us too.”

Jessica Mauboy has sung for Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama, but her family in Darwin is what inspires her.

the local choir. Her father Ferdy, an electrician, was born in West Timor and raised in the NT. “My mother Therese never had a mother to lean on because she passed away when she was just 10 years old and rarely spoke of her,” she says.

“That’s when I realised I wanted to become a nurturer for my own mother and how important it is for us all to lean on her, but she needs us too.

“I have visions of her raising us girls and now think back and wonder that must have been hard for her not having her own mother to call and speak to. That voice of reason wasn’t there.”

Naming the album Hilda is a way of keeping her spirit alive. Hilda tragically died at the age of 36 when her grass skirt caught fire.

“Hilda captures all struggles I saw my own mother have in trying to raise her children and survive motherhood. It’s about strength, identity, love, kindness and hardship,” Mauboy says.

Songs on the album like Sunday are a reminder to slow down and remain in the moment.

“It’s the small things I was missing like watching

argument with her long-term boyfriend Themeli Magripilis. “A stupid fight about a childhood crush became so big,” she says.

“The fight went from Saturday night into Sunday and I wrote it the following Monday.”

Away from music, Mauboy also found her feet as an actor in the acclaimed 2012 musical film The Sapphires, 2009’s Bran Nue Dae as well as The Secret Daughter in 2016 and 2017.

“I still receive a few scripts here and there but I’m particular about what I choose,” says Mauboy, who won an AACTA for Best Supporting Actress in 2013 (for The Sapphires) in the same year she was awarded NT Young Australian of the Year.

“I love being able to bring a character to life and I would do it again,” she says.

“It’s about choosing a role I feel I can bring something to, it has to mean something and I have to have a connection with the script and storyline.

I would definitely love to do it again.” ● ● jessicamauboy.com.au

rowing up in Melbourne’s bayside suburbs, Jane Bunn didn’t think about becoming a meteorologist when she was at school.

“I was drama captain and I was dancing every day of the week, then in year 12 I thought about having a serious career and I ended up choosing IT,” Bunn says.

“I completed the first year of that at university and thought it wasn’t for me.

“I took some time off and thought about what I wanted to do, and I found myself procrastinating with horrible jobs by looking at the weather, and I thought – ‘I’m going to turn this into a career’.”

She got a gig for WIN News around Victoria where she gathered a cult following, which brought her to the attention of Channel 7 news bosses.

Bunn has been the official Seven News meteorologist for nearly five years and, like just like at WIN, has a huge fan base. “It’s 100 per cent my dream job,� she says. “I would be following the weather regardless, to be presenting that to a big audience is such a great thing.�

Bunn will step out of the studio and head trackside this spring as the Caulfield Cup Carnival Pin Ambassador, with proceeds raised going to Ronald McDonald House.

Bunn says. “The nice thing about it is that it is a love heart, and the artist James Goldcrown does some really exciting things and it’s great to have him at Caulfield.�

Goldcrown is one of New York’s most well-known street artists, famous for his heart pieces. His distinctive art – an outdoor mural – will also feature at the racecourse during the carnival.

Melbourne Racing Club chief commercial officer Peta Webster says Goldcrown will bring the carnival’s New York City theme to life.

Bunn will be at the races on Caufield Guineas Day and Caulfield Cup Day. “You get to the end of the footy season and you then get into spring racing mode, it’s such a lovely thing and a lovely time to be in Melbourne,� she says. � � mrc.racing.com/spring

FOOD Childhood lessons informed Evan Karavitis’ quest to produce an elixir-like wild olive oil.

W

Oil baron Wo r d s

J O S H B OZ I N PARKER BLAIN

hether it’s a fresh piece of ciabatta bread bathed in olive oil or a plate of pasta drizzled in its golden goodness, have you ever taken a moment to question the quality of your olive oil? Or even where it might come from?

Fortunately for olive oil fiends, there is now a 100 per cent wild and pure olive oil grown, picked and produced in southern Greece – by a Melbourne company – that could change the way olive oil is consumed.

Melbourne’s Evan Karavitis is a second-generation Greek-Australian and founder and director of The Wild

Olive, a new brand of nutrient-dense olive oil heralding from thousands of years old olive trees in the mountainous region of Laconia.

But for Karavitis, The Wild Olive represents more than just a business three years in the making; it’s a passion project that was born from his love and appreciation for his Greek heritage.

“Food was a way of life growing up, and olive oil was used in everything we ate,” he says.

“We had our own olive groves in Greece, which have been in the family for generations, so fortunately our olive oil was always homemade and fresh – I knew the difference between good and bad olive oil.

“Dad’s best friend in Greece would always talk about his own wild olive oil and its overwhelming medicinal benefits.

The Wild Olive’s Early Harvest oil.

“So, I did my research and was naturally blown away by just what wild olive oil can do for a person’s health.

“It just cements the fact that Greek olive, for me, is the best in the world.”

For thousands of years, the olive tree has been an important symbol in Greek history and culture; it’s

said that olive oil was a gift from the gods. Today, the closest thing to a godsend is wild olive oil, which derives from untouched groves in areas of southern Greece.

No one knows exactly how long these trees have stood nor how they got there, but what they produce Karavitis has now proudly introduced to Australia.

“Cultivation [of olive trees] is a trade that has been passed on from generation to generation in Greece,” he says.

“These trees are a minimum 100 to 3000 years old, and only the locals or trained experts know the best methods to produce this pure, wild olive oil.

“But there’s different types of olive oil that we produce from different trees in Greece, which are picked at different times.

“These trees are 100 to 3000 years old, and only the locals know the best method to produce this olive oil.”

“There’s an early harvest extravirgin olive oil which is cold-pressed from nutrient dense Greek olives and is known for its high levels of polyphenol antioxidants.

“You have to pick the un-ripe olive at the right time, which results in a higher quality oil.

“Then there is wild olive oil which is beyond organic. These olives are hand-picked off sustainably-grown trees, and only trained cultivates are able to do this.”

The result? A super antioxidant, chemical-free olive oil – or “elixir”, as Karavitis puts is – that supports healthy cholesterol, possesses antiinflammatory properties and is a

rich source of monounsaturated fats.

There’s a saying in Laconia that “the harsher the soil, the sweeter the oil”, and although what you taste is somewhat earthy and smoky, there’s no denying that this oil is different to other products on the Australian market.

“I’m keeping the history and culture of olive oil cultivation alive with this product,” Karavitis says.

“My grandfather would always tell me ‘drink a finger from a glass of olive oil every day, and you’ll live to be one hundred’ … he was never wrong.” ● ● discoverthewildolive.com

TRAVEL \ CUBA Cuba is colourful, crumbling and still clearly communist, but travelling there is worth the effort.

Simultaneously filled with history and stuck in time, it’s unlike anywhere else you’ve been. Stay longer to discover what lies beyond the vintage cars.

A weekend in Havana

Turn back time F U S T E R L A N D IA

Get your bearings with a free walking tour of Old Havana to tick off major sights, but be sure to leave a tip (freewalkingtourhavana.com).

You’ll be hungry after a few hours on your feet – try lechon asado (roast pork) in Nao Bar’s atmospheric cobbled lane to a backing track of local musicians and leave room for mamey ice cream at Helad’oro.

Dinner should be at El Helecho, a three-table paladar in a family’s

colonial home. Spend the rest of the night at Fabrica de Arte Cubano, a Berlin-esque gallery, club and live music venue in an awe-inspiring former oil plant.

The next day, hire a ’50s convertible and head out of town to Fusterlandia, where Cuban artist Jose Fuster has covered his neighbourhood in whimsical mosaic.

Drive by Castillo De Los Tres Reyes Del Morro, a fortress guarding Havana Bay, and Plaza de la Revolucion, a concrete square punctuated by grey buildings adorned with giant portraits of Che Guevara and Camilo Cienfuegos.

Spend your last hours battling tourists for a daiquiri at Hemingway’s old favourite, La Floridita, or stroll down Paseo del Prado, the promenade dividing Old and New Havana.

he day you plant the seed is not the day you eat the fruit. This is a message I try to get through to people when they start their health and fitness journey.

The day that we plant the seed is the most important step but it will not be the day that we eat the fruit.

We are often highly motivated at the start of the journey, but we just need to be a little patient.

We often think and procrastinate for a long time before that seed is planted but it’s the consistency and hard work once that seed is in the ground that

“You must remember to be patient but never underestimate the power the body has to change.” will bear the fruit you’re looking for. I understand better than most that everyone is looking for a quick fix. You may not want to hear this but good things take time.

Talking to so many people undergoing a transformation process, you quickly identify that “a long time” is a very relative term.

If you are already in fairly good shape and are just looking to get a little leaner and have those abs popping for summer, eight weeks may feel like a “long time”.

Whereas if you have neglected your health for two decades and have over 30 kilos to lose, eight weeks doesn’t feel like long at all.

Regardless of this, you must remember to be

patient but never underestimate the power the body has to change.

It can be difficult for some people to acknowledge that results won’t be immediate. So, I say to people, “You can’t plant a seed and expect to harvest tomatoes the next day but if you water regularly and trim the leaves, eventually they will grow”.

I always tell my 28ers that 28 days is enough time to see and eat some of that fruit, you just need to be consistent.

You might not see a fully grown tomato at the end of the 28 days, but you will see it start to sprout, giving you a taste of what you can achieve and propelling you forward with motivation.

Another important reminder is that we are our

own harshest critics. When we look at ourselves in the mirror every day, sometimes multiple times per day, what we see is often not a true reflection of what is really happening.

A lot of people tell me that they didn’t think they were getting the results they were after until they tried on a pair of jeans they didn’t fit or ran into a friend they hadn’t seen in a while.

Focus on the process, don’t weigh yourself more than once a week and understand that there is no perfect science to losing weight.

The most important thing is that you are consistent and persistent. ● ● 28bysamwood.com

Originally a Methodist church built in the 1920s, The Abbey is something of a minor architectural landmark in this section of Middle Park. Almost a century later, the building is now attracting a new set of true-believers: those who worship at the altar of good residential design.

The Abbey now houses three private apartments, with No.2 just coming onto the market. It’s a three-bedroom residence located on the ground floor.

The front door opens immediately into the spacious open living/dining room, which together with the adjoining kitchen takes up around half of this apartment’s sizeable floor plan.

The kitchen’s long island bench offers plenty of space for cooking, while track lighting in the living room keeps things tasteful. Next to the kitchen is a small study, its windows helping bring the outside light in.

All three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, with the main bedroom also housing an en suite with marble vanity and a taste of luxury in the form of a spa bath. The central main bathroom, meanwhile, has a frameless shower.

Hydronic heating and split-system airconditioning regulate temperatures throughout the residence.

The apartment also comes with its own charming outdoor patio, accessible from both a central hallway and the main bedroom. There’s space out here for a table, some chairs and a bit of greenery that together could create a nice, private retreat from the rest of the house and the surrounding area alike.

As for that surrounding area: the neighbourhood offers a diverse array of excuses to get out of the house.

Dr. Tony Stubbs, Eye Surgeon, says that just about anyone can have their vision restored and be rid of their glasses for most of the time. And this is without the use of laser surgery.

Dr Stubbs formerly at the Royal Victorian Eye Hospital who has worked with the Fred Hollows eye department at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney, says he began his career through the inspiration of his father, Dr Maxwell Stubbs.

“My father was a pioneer in cataract implant surgery from 1963! He has now passed away but some of his patients still come in for a check-up. Not only is this inspirational, it also demonstrates that good surgery outlasts the surgeon,” Dr Stubbs says.

A specialist who helps people who have been advised they are unsuitable for laser surgery, Dr Stubbs is also committed to demonstrating that age, corneal distortion or astigmatism are no barriers to eliminating the need for glasses.

One of my best moments was treating a 12-year-old girl who was struggling at school because of poor vision due to congenital cataracts even with the use of thick glasses. Now 10 years later, she still has 20/20 vision without glasses. That inspires me.

“Seeing my patients’ bright smiles after surgery, as they stop squinting and can read without glasses, is definitely the best part of my job.”

No referral is needed and no out-of-pocket expenses are incurred for an assessment to enable all options available to be considered.
