In this episode of Kids, Culture, Community – SNAICC Yarns, Eastern Arrernte and Gurindji woman and SNAICC Communications Coordinator, Dakoda Lally, joins host Michael Lynch for a powerful yarn about storytelling, social media and why our stories matter more than ever.
Dialling in from Mparntwe (Alice Springs), Dakoda reflects on the power of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander storytelling, reminding us that we are the original storytellers of this Country. She unpacks how social media can be a tool for amplifying strength-based narratives, shifting deficit discourse and showcasing the incredible work happening across the ACCO and early childhood sector.
Together, they explore practical, accessible strategies for organisations wanting to strengthen their online presence in 2026, from yearly content planning and working month-by-month, to understanding the personality of each platform. Is Facebook the loose uncle at Christmas? Is Instagram the cool cousin? Is LinkedIn the polished entrepreneur? Dakoda breaks down how each space requires a different approach and why short-form vertical video is here to stay.
Whether you’re new to social media or looking to refine your strategy, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is simply have a yarn and press record.
