Making dreams come true.

 

Are you ready for another blog about life being too short, and how we have to make the most of every chance given to us? Well, here it is, your weekly dose of 'do all the things!'

On Tuesday 27th February 2024, I walked through the doors of 'The Voice FM' not for the first time, because I had previously been into the studio to be interviewed by Hopps for a 5 marathons in 5 days attempt. But this time, it was all about the learning process, to learn a whole new job for myself, at the age of 49!

I have already blogged this a little, but my journey has continued week by week, doing an hour every Thursday on Hopps' show, getting used to the feel of the desk, being comfortable in my new environment, and getting it right!

I'm still making the odd small mistake here and there, but all in all, I feel comfortable and at home in the studio now, I find that I belong there.

I was soon asked to cover a couple of weekends, covering Amy Dymond's show on a Saturday when she was on holiday, the first time doing over an hour. It was great, and I got to meet some of the other presenters there too. Everyone at The Voice is so friendly and helpful, with little tips of how to be more confident during the show, all the tips!

When I originally spoke to Hopps about the station, I asked if it was possible to be trained for a show on the new 'VOICE 2' the retro station for 60's, 70's and 80's music. I love the music on Voice 2, I suppose it's what I grew up with and it resonates a lot with me. Primarily the radio is all about music, I play music, I'm a musician, I dance to it, choreograph aerobics routines to it, it's a passion of mine, so all this time, learning at the station, I have some amazing news........

Starting this coming Saturday, 17th August, I will have my very own show on THE VOICE 2!

I will be on from 1-3pm playing all the very best tunes from the 60's, 70's and 80's and I cannot wait. So I am telling you all now about it so that you can listen, because music is most definitely for sharing.

The station is digital, on your smart speaker, the app, online, all the usual places, so there is no excuse! 

Will you be listening in this Saturday?

How ditching the booze can create a 'Happily Ever After!'

  On Saturday 20th July 2024 me and my husband will be celebrating one whole year of marriage. It's a wondrous thing, especially as I didn't even believe that true LOVE existed four years ago. How on earth did that happen? I can tell you, well part of the story at least, the other part was that I hadn't yet met my soulmate, but the journey began before I met Ryan, it was how I got to know myself. For most of my life I have struggled with self-belief. I wasn't confident growing up, although seemingly, on the surface I appear to have all the confidence of a big CAT on the prowl, in reality, it was all just a big ACT. I have battled with an eating disorder, then once I had tamed that beast (sort of) alcohol became my friend (or so I thought). I didn't have to face up to the reality of who I was and where I was going when I was in the pub with my 'so called friends.' It was escapism. It couldn't last forever if you want to live a long, happy and healthy life...

Get rid of unwanted stress.

 How well do you manage stress? Are you one of those chilled out people who breeze through life not worrying about things? Or are you constantly on edge wondering how to resolve the next stressful situation? Stress is a natural part of life, but the more advanced we have become, the more we have to worry about. When previously all we had to worry about was hunting our next meal and making sure we had enough heat and water for the family, that would have been stress enough, but now we have endless lists of things to worry about. Have I done the right thing at work? Have I paid the rent? Is the car working properly? Has the dog has its vaccinations? Is Auntie Beryl okay as I haven't heard from her? Have the kids got the right technology so they don't get beaten up at school? Am I wearing the latest fashion so that I will fit in? Have I got enough money for food for the next week?  The list is seemingly endless and these little stresses all build up over time, eventually leading ...

Nostalgia!

  TODAY would have been my wonderful Dad's Birthday, he would have been 78 years old, sadly he passed away at only 54 years old, from a brain tumour. He was ridiculously fit, ate well, did all the good things, but sadly that didn't stop him from getting poorly.  NOW, that doesn't mean, 'well I may as well do all the bad things if that can happen!' It doesn't work like that. You STILL need to do ALL the good things, good nutrition, exercise, proper sleep, laughter, all the things. Then you can guarantee a quality life, no matter how long it is. THIS week on my MINDFULNESS MONDAY post on social media, I spoke about nostalgia. It was my husband's birthday on Monday, and I was also thinking of my Dad's birthday too. Then it got me thinking about birthdays in the past, how they were celebrated, and all the fun we had. I like to visit the past from time to time, I don't like to live there, to dwell there, but I like to remind myself of the good things, and...
