'Yamatji man, Rhys Paddick is a storyteller, artist and expert in cultural desensitivity - how to explore and connect with Aboriginal peoples and cultures with courage, excitement and joy, as opposed to facilitating cultural change from the all too common place of shame, guilt and fear. Rhys specialises in moving people and businesses out of ticking boxes into a place of authenticity. As a storyteller and artist, Rhys takes from his 15+ years of working with and for Aboriginal people and organisations, and has designed and delivered multiple workshops, trainings and keynotes all in an effort to connect fellow Australians to our common cultures.'
