We had a great time chatting about growing up Italian Australian with our guest in this episode- Elena Di Fiore. Elena is a business consultant, wife, mother of 3 children and a proud Italian Australian. Elena is the manager of our previous guest, the incredibly talented musician Michael Cristiano. You will hear some of Michael's music in this episode and we chatted about our appreciation of his work.

We also reminisced about growing up and developing our identities as Italian Australians and how we can carry our culture forward in the next generation. Elena told us about her values of ensuring her children have an understanding of Italian Australian culture and shares this with them through family, cooking, language and music. This was one of our chats that could have gone on forever and we look forward to speaking with Elena again in the future.

Music featured in this episode is by the incredibly talented Melbourne based musician Michael Cristiano. These tracks are from his recent album 'Mai Finira'
