Stories of Survival in the Modern Age

About Stories of Survival in the Modern Age

We all have more strength than we realise, especially in the everyday moments that quietly test us. This podcast is a space for heartfelt, courageous, and inspiring conversations - stories about surviving the everyday things: the roadblocks that can trip us up and hold us back from creating a life we truly love. Some episodes are reflective, where I share what I'm learning, noticing, listening to, or reading along the way. Mostly, I'll be having conversations with people who show up with honesty and openness, offering real stories rather than polished answers. This is a space for gentle insight, meaningful dialogue, and reminders that growth doesn't have to be loud or dramatic. It's about navigating life as it really is, with compassion, curiosity, and a growing trust in our own strength.

   Being True to Yourself Doesn’t Mean Staying the Same

   At 56, after more than 30 years in education, Dr. Charlotte Garbutt decided it was time to do something completely different. She retrained as a personal stylist and colour analyst and started her own business, not because she had suddenly become someone else, rather she wanted to re-empower herself and try something new. In this conversation, Charlotte and I talk about reinvention, confidence and authenticity, and why being true to yourself doesn't mean staying the same. We challenge the rid...
