I hate how we talk about age and aging, and I hate how people make themselves feel about it. But it's a light hearted episode.

This episode, I'm joined by Rebecca of @viewmaster.bex, who collects Viewmaster reels! We talk about a lot of things in this longer episode, from collecting and the history of Viewmaster Reels to finding your joy. I'm so excited that she joined me for this fun episode.

Why being a Pollyanna can change your life, your relationships and your body. Cultivate an attitude of gratitude. I also reference Janice Kaplan's book and podcast The Gratitude Diaries.

We are joined for a special episode this week by artist, educator, curator Lee Fearnside, who joins me to talk about the book Death Never Dies, an anthology that she edited and illustrated. And which I was lucky enough to be asked to contribute a piece to. Since this interview, the book has gone on to garner some awards in the indie publishing field, which is awesome. We chat about the book, board games, art, death and grieving and more in this longer episode. The audio isn't perfect, I'm still learning how to edit and how to podcast in general, but I'm very excited to introduce you to Lee.

Opening this new season with some good vibes by talking about hope, what it is and why Jane Goodall has reason to believe in the power of it. Inspired by a recent read of her book The Book Of Hope, which is highly recommended reading. (My copy was sent to me for review on another platform, but I liked it so much I'm sharing it here too. Not sponsored but was a complimentary copy)

Coming soon! Season 2! Perhaps with slightly better audio. 

I have fun setting goals each year, and this is how I do it and stick to them, year after year. Goal setting doesn't have to be a dry, uncreative experience. It can be really rewarding, even if you're not an organised personality type. 

Sewing, knitting and other repetitive creative tasks do us more good than we realised...
