OUR GIRLS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.

The editor’s desk

SIMON SHIFF

If I was to say this week’s edition features the world’s most relatable supermodel, you’d tell me to pull the other one. But Megan Gale, who found fame in Italy and translated it to a long and fabulous career on catwalks and on magazine covers in Australia, is just that. In her industry, models have to be as ferocious as they are photogenic, and for Gale, it’s developed into an astute business acumen. Melbourne-based Gale is candid on her new business (skincare), family, judgment, love and loss, in a rounded interview on the common themes that bind us – even if some have more lissom legs. ●

FIRST PERSON

““I am Andrew Startin ” … and I’m a head doorman I’ve been at The Langham for about 10 months, but

before that I was an impersonator. I sent a video into The Footy Show when I was 19, impersonating Sam Newman, and won a competition. They put me on the show four more times that year and from that exposure I started to get inquiries from corporate people and sporting clubs about entertaining at their functions. I was doing Sam, Bruce McAvaney, Mike Sheahan, Gerard Whateley, Dennis Cometti.

How did I end up in this job? I just thought I needed a bit of a change because it’s been a long time doing the same thing, being my own boss.

I needed something that was going to closely resemble working with people and in front of people but it’s a little bit more intimate this time around, as opposed to being on a stage.

The interview was stressful for me because I’ve been my own boss for 22 years. It’s the first interview I’ve ever had.

I’ve had countless guests say, “geez, you look familiar”. I say, “Where do you reckon you might have seen me before?” Then some will come back after lunch, or the next day, and say, “I’ve got it, you’re the guy that does the impersonations”.

My job is to be the guests’ first and last impression of the hotel. Every time I’m opening a car door and greeting a guest, that is something that flashes through my head.

When people hear the title of doorman they think that I just stand there all day. It’s more than that.

Running the driveway is a major part of my job. I’ve got to make sure it’s as clear as possible of traffic because it can get clogged up quite quickly. Not everybody will park their car where you would think they should park their car.

It’s getting luggage out of taxis, out of hire cars – that’s my gym workout. Then there’s tagging the luggage and the valet dockets for guests’ vehicles.

We do try to remember names and that’s a challenge because you’ve got to be 100 per cent certain. The last thing you want to do is call Mr Jones “Mr Smith”. I can’t name names, but we’ve had everyone from rock stars to entrepreneurs and tennis champions stay here. I’m a massive Queen fan. If Brian May stayed here, I’d probably lose it. ● ● langhamhotels.com

COVER STORY

It’s a beautiful life Former model Megan Gale, who describes herself as vulnerable but tough, gains inspiration from her mother and two children for her next venture.

S

he made a name for herself as the face of David Jones in the 2000s and last walked the runway for designer Alex Perry at his Melbourne Fashion Festival show in 2011.

But these days former model Megan Gale has other things on her mind – starting a new business, raising two young children and, for the past eight years, happily calling Melbourne home.

“I haven’t considered myself a model for many years,” says Gale, who first walked for David Jones in 1995 and got her big break in Italy in 1999 with an advertisement for telco company Omnitel.

“It is one of the many hats I have worn, but I have learnt to slow down and not try and do a million things at once,” she smiles.

“For many years I was moving from one hotel to the other because that was what was required with my work; and now love nothing more than to stay put and feel more grounded.”

Gale’s new ethical children’s skincare line, Mindful Life, is testament to her new modus operandi. Working from home is where she had the idea to start a new business five years ago.

She also took inspiration from Elle Macpherson, who has become a successful businesswoman after years of modelling.

In the past, Gale put her name to beauty products (L’Oreal) and started a swimwear line (Isola) but admits she never quite felt entirely fulfilled.

“I wanted to start a purpose-driven business,” says Gale, who also spent $20,000 to have her products dermatologically tested. “If it had my name on it, I had to dot the i’s and cross the t’s.

“I didn’t just want a another baby brand to join the market. This is about encouraging families to be present with their children especially when it’s bath time. It’s not always possible, but it’s about not wishing this time away either.”

Gale has two children with fiance and retired Carlton and Richmond AFL player Shaun Hampson; River, aged five, and Rosie, 20 months.

She thanks her mother for encouraging her to “wake up and smell the roses” – advice that only really made sense once she became a mother herself.

“Mum would always tell me to slow down, don’t wish your time away during a newborn phase.

Before you know it they grow up. It’s advice that doesn’t really sink in when you’re sleep-deprived and just want them to sleep,” she says.

G

ale was born and raised in Perth and won a modelling competition at 18. It’s been 20 years since she went to Italy where she kick-started her career.

“I had my five years of struggle,” she recalls of finding it hard to get work in Australia before moving to Europe.

“I can thank the Italian job because after that

everyone back home wanted to know who I was. I didn’t get put on the cover of Vogue straight away, but I knew in my bones if I stuck to it, I’d eventually make it. You really need a lot of self-belief in this cutthroat industry.”

For all her assertive mannerisms, there’s a vulnerability to Gale you perceive after spending time with her. Behind that huge smile, towering height and those wide eyes is someone who wants to let you in, but is on guard at the same time.

“I’m a funny human,” she says.

“I’m quite a sensitive and vulnerable soul, but at the same time I have a side of ‘just dust yourself off and keep going’.

“I am tough because I have had to be in this business. I saw lots of people succeed around me before I found my own. It wasn’t easy. I’ve also been burned in business, been lied to, had my trust abused. It sets you up to tread carefully.”

At their family home in Melbourne’s east, Gale is happiest when speaking about her kids. River likes to bring in leaves from the front garden and name each one of them with her, while Rosie happily throws a pile of dirt on the floor and runs back outside to get more.

“The kids make me realise what’s really important,” Gale says. “They have put everything into perspective for me. I always say if they are healthy and thriving you are lucky.”

“Mum would always tell me to slow down, don’t wish your time away during the newborn phase.

It’s advice that doesn’t really sink in when you’re sleep-deprived ... ” MEGAN GALE 6

Gale, who dated comedian and TV personality Andy Lee for four years before meeting Hampson in 2011, says she’s still perplexed at the media’s obsession with her private life.

“Much was made of our age gap when Shaun and I got together, which I hated, because I felt like that was a bigger deal than the fact we were both happy and compatible,” Gale says.

“We have an extraordinary level of communication, and that’s one of the most important aspects of a relationship.

“I wouldn’t have been able to start this business without his support.”

Gale’s father, Alan, died a few months after their son was born; a difficult time for her family.

“It was horrible to see my dad deteriorate with a terminal disease, but we made the most of all that time we had left,” she says.

“We also lost Shaun’s dad, Thomas, a month before River was born. Our mums went through a horrific time – deaths, births. It was so intense.”

Gale was close to her father and, like him, spent a lot of time dwelling and sweating the small stuff in her 20s and 30s.

“If my dad could talk to me now he would say, ‘let things go Megan, don’t hang onto things bothering you, it’s not worth it because life is too short’,” she says.

“Embrace what you have and be thankful, be present. That’s all I strive for everyday.” ● ● themindfullife.com

5 MINUTES WITH …

Fiona Horne WHO \ Modern

witch, front woman of electro-rock band DEF FX and now a humanitarian aid pilot WHAT \ Her new book The Art of Witch WHERE \ On a tour of storytelling and a Q&A

I

In t e r v i e w b y

JA N E R O C CA

n the 1990s, Fiona Horne rocked hard as the enigmatic front woman of Sydney electro-rock band DEF FX, inspiring many women to take the stage in the era that delivered grunge and the Riot Grrrl movement.

But she also inspired many women to explore modern witchcraft at a time when the topic was mostly taboo. It was the early ’90s, after all.

At 52, she’s written a new book The Art of Witch (her 11th release) – a manifesto of sorts on her fascination

with witchcraft, looking at how it’s evolved and allowed her to grow.

It’s also a DIY guide, if you like, that dispels the myths and stereotypes and opens up the mind to inspire all curious types to think outside the square they live in.

It was through her autobiography The Naked Witch, released a few years ago, that Horne revealed her obsession with witchcraft began at five while growing up in Sydney. “As a kid playing in the bush, I knew the natural world was magical,” she says.

flying in livestock, doctors, beekeepers and more. “Doing my bit to help others gives me the greatest fulfilment of all,” she says.

As a twentysomething in a band, all she wanted was approval and to be seen as cool. “What I remember for that time is being on stage at the 1994 Big Day Out Sydney and ripping my top off and the audience taking their tops off with me.

“I thought, if guys can do it why can’t we? It was sincere and in the moment but the newspapers at the time speculated if I was making a powerful political statement. In the early ’90s there wasn’t much awareness or support for women in music. It has grown a lot. If I had a role to play I am grateful.” ●

“I felt a sense of transformative empowerment in it. And then, as a kid, I saw shows like Bewitched and it gave me the idea I could do magic and make a difference in the world.

“Albeit it was glamorised ... but it allowed me to see there was a practical skill to it, too.”

The Art of Witch is designed to empower through magic – and if that sounds all hippy stardust to you, then Horne says you’re wrong.

“I don’t do manipulative spells, but will guide people on a ritual as part of the spoken word tour,” she says.

“My witchcraft is who and what I am and it informs every facet of my life.”

Horne now lives in the Virgin Islands and works as a commercial pilot who primarily flies humanitarian aid missions to cyclone-affected islands. “I got my commercial licence in 2016 in LA and worked three jobs to save the money to go for it,” she says.

SAM WOOD \ FITNESS

Winter weight watching

E

very year for the past 18 years, like clockwork, the same thing happens. September 1, the first day of spring, rolls around and my gym is inundated with people in a rush to get in shape.

The most frustrating thing, from my perspective, is that most people who rush and lose weight quickly go on to yo-yo. What people don’t understand is that when you try and lose weight fast, you usually do it the wrong way.

You drop muscle, lose water and base your regime around unhealthy, unsustainable habits. If you are smart, however, you start in winter, you do it right and that weight stays off for good.

Here’s why I love getting in shape in winter.

AT-HOME WORKOUTS \ The success of my 28 by

Sam Wood program has shown me the incredible results that tens of thousands of people have

INSURANCE EXCESS REDUCTION

achieved working out in the comfort of their own home. It is quite simply the most convenient way to get into shape. There is a reason 85 per cent of Australia’s gym members don’t use their membership more than four times a year.

Gyms can be time-consuming, intimidating and judgmental. Working out at home? Wear your daggiest clothes, flick on your phone and do it. No looking for your runners, driving to the gym, trying to find a park or fighting for the machines.

DELICIOUS WINTER RECIPES \ I love winter food.

There is nothing better than getting inside (and out of the cold) to the smell of healthy soups, delicious curries and warm winter salads wafting through the house and waking up our taste buds. These hearty recipes are often quite filling and therefore reduce snacking throughout the day.

climate can really get you down. Exercise is a great remedy for the winter blues and, honestly, there’s no greater feeling than getting hot and sweaty on a miserable day.

In winter, we can quite easily spend all our time indoors. You might be ditching your morning runs to avoid the rain and eating your lunch at your desk as opposed to the nearest park and this can all be detrimental for your mental and physical health.

Working out in the colder weather (indoors is fine) can give you energy to get through a gloomy day, fill you with endorphins and stop you from feeling sluggish if you’re less active than you usually would be in the warmer months.

Keep your eye on the prize. No matter how dark, how cold, or how tempting Netflix and a blanket seem, don’t lose track of your goal. If you do the work now when you’re not missing much, you can enjoy those spring social celebrations guilt-free. ●

routine in the cooler months allows you plenty of time to find something that works for you, is sustainable and is (hopefully) something you enjoy.

It also means that if you slip up, sustain an injury, go on holiday or even just lose your way a little bit that you have enough time to get back on track.

YOU’LL DEVELOP LONG LASTING HABITS \

Autumn and winter are the perfect time to start developing healthy habits. This means that by the time spring and summer hit these healthy behaviours will be second-nature.

Staring at the ceiling need not be an indication of a vacant state of mind. If you did it at this address, your thoughts would likely be engaged in admiration of the grand ceiling roses. Circular and inverted, the rose in the lounge lends greater height to the already-high ceiling. Rectangular and intrinsically art deco, like the one in the dining room, the ceiling rose in the main bedroom should inspire pillow talk.

The house was built in the late 1930s. Subsequent extensions and renovations have kept it abreast with the demands of family living so effectively that only two families have had the pleasure, thus qualifying it as a true keeper.

Find the main bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, en suite (and said rose) off the entrance foyer. Opposite, double doors lead to the lounge and connected dining room, both with picture rails, gas fireplaces and afore-mentioned ceiling adornment.

Pass under the hall’s deco archway toward the powder room, laundry, bathroom and three minor bedrooms with built-in wardrobes.

Sliding doors to the right of the hall part to the northfacing, open-plan hub, where kitchen, meals and living areas merge in modern fashion. Honey-coloured timber floors here reflect an abundance of incoming light, and the kitchen glows in stone and stainless steel. Glass doors in the living area open to a covered terrace looking over the green backyard.

The front rooms display original timber doors and leadlight windows. As the current owners choose to dine in the hub, they use the dining room for cello and piano

Dr. Tony Stubbs Eye Surgeon MB BS BSc(Hons)B Med Sc MS FRANZCO

12419479-FA23-19

Pioneering Bathroom Designs are passionate about designing and constructing visually appealing bathrooms.

With our many work shops with Reece bathroom life stores will inspire to provide a bathroom space where you can feel comfortable in your own personal style and taste.

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.
