This was me. On my 30th birthday, I had a serious accident. Since then, I have had some pretty amazing conversations with people around me. I thought the world should hear these - so here we are, my podcast.
Hopefully, it will give you a chance to pause for a moment or start a conversation of your own. You may find these helpful on your journey to recovery, or simply reach out to someone and say what you've always wanted to say.
Thank you for being a part of this experience and I hope it brings you whatever you need.

Chevaun Greenhill | Cardiac Arrest in the Young
Chevaun Greenhill | Cardiac Arrest in the Young
One thing you never expect to wake up to is even more pain that your little brother is in cardiac arrest the day after your father has suffered a stroke. Chevaun's family suffered a tragedy when she was a busy university student. Just a young 18-year-old studying to set the foundations of a career in the arts ultimately become the days that would set the course of the rest of her life in ways unimaginable.
This is a story of true resilience and a lifetime of doing everything you can to remember loved ones who leave us so soon. In this case, it is for her then 13-year-old brother Lewis, who was playing tennis just moments before his passing.
You can find Chevaun here: @chevaungreenhill

Alex Smith | Covid 19: Ship to Shore
It is 2020, and reports of the newly emerging Covid-19 virus break in Wuhan, China. It was then little known that the virus would quickly take over the world and lock us down for months.
There was a cruise ship named the Diamond Princess near the coast of Japan that caught attention quickly.
As an experienced performer, Alex Smith worked on cruise ships as a dance captain and was accustomed to living on a ship as her everyday life. As soon as this new virus arrived onboard, breaking news suddenly became something very real.
Alex, one of the first Britons to experience COVID-19, describes her unique experience of the pandemic. From ship to shore, Japan, and a flight like no other back to England, this is where the pandemic started before it was the pandemic we know today.

I wanted to acknowledge this day, and I have found writing a comfort. So I wrote this spoken word performance. I hope you enjoy it.
