We'll also visit a remote social enterprise in the Northern Territory that provides tea and impact in the form of a beautifully filmed short story, presented by Impact North coordinator Alexie Sellers.

Each episode will feature a single key stories on a chosen theme plus two short stories that will provide hits of inspiration and learning.

When appropriate, each show will also feature a 30-minute post-show learning circle, where for a small fee, you'll have a facilitated learning experience exploring the theme at greater depth followed by sector networking.
