How it all started
A visual-first storytelling podcast, exploring human behavior, identity, and meaning through the personal objects people keep. Merging documentary and public art, this long-form series features interviews with creatives and industry experts, curating stories tied to symbolic possessions and revealing psychological insights, emotional intelligence, and decision-making patterns that shape who we are.
Kaz Maurice O’Leary creates transient gallery spaces and narrative archives, inviting participants to present meaningful objects and uncover personal, emotional, and cultural significance.
These cherished items act as psychological markers - capturing motivation, memory, trauma, transformation, loss, ambition, love, and growth. Each episode is a case study in identity and lived experience, documented with photography and 3D scans. More than a podcast, this series reveals what we value, why we hold on, and how our objects reflect the human mind.
Kaz's background
A remarkable career with visionary storytelling at its core, driven by creativity with purpose. Having won over 60 international awards for crafting global brand stories and creating public art installations, Kaz has been on a constant mission to use storytelling, vulnerability, and art to bring us closer together.
As a professional speaker, she is known for her own transformative story - The Bolognese Philosophy, which encourages us to gather at the dinner table on time in an overworked world. The inspiration for this movement came after she almost, unknowingly, missed the last meal with her husband before losing him in an accident. That meal was his home-cooked Bolognese.
