Delving with Des

Hi there, this week I am joined by the delightful Casey Baldwin formally the 2IC at Heritage Christian College in Port Macquarie and now running an amazing organisation called Intergen Connect (www.intergenconnect.com.au) which brings together the Aged and the Young for the benefit of both.

Join me as I delve into the life of Casey and how she ended up doing what she is doing.

IN this Episode, we continue our chat with Brooke Cherfils, after her arrival in Australia from Canada. We think that life would be better, right..? Well, think again..!! Brooke's life took a traumatic turn.

Listen in as we delve into Brooke's life in Australia.

In this first interview (of two) with Brooke Cherfils - a delightful Canadian lady who now lives and works in Port Macquarie, we talk about her traumatic early life, her faith, and her overcoming the most horrific of times.

Join me as I chat with Brooke about what is important to her and how she dealt with circumstances that most of us could only imagine.

Great Interview and a great story (thanks Brooke)......

On the show this week, I will be delving into the lives of Vincent and Jane Moore, who got married later in life and are actively involved in serving/volunteering in the local PMQ community.

Vincent runs a group called "Blokes Coffee Time" so check them out on Facebook, and Jane is active in many things as well.

IN this second show with the amazing Bron Watson, we talk about her struggles with cancer and then about the current systems and how they need to be changed to be more supportive of those going through this illness.

Bron talks about A = A, and how to disregard B through G which are the way our mind things about the future and makes us panic and stress rather than focusing on what we know.

Great show and great conversation.

On the "Delving with Des" show this week, we have the amazing Bron Watson. Bron is well known in Port Macquarie for her drive, enthusiasm, through coaching, and mentoring. But underneath all her energy has been pain, severe sickness, and life changing circumstances.

In this first of two shows, Bron talks about her life and the lessons she has learnt, and how she has helped others through life circumstances.

In this second show with Sam Jackel, Sam talks about her accident on the farm that Sam and Peter own and manage.

A seriously life threatening incident that could have been so traumatic and devastating.

Sam talks about how she self-counseled herself - an interesting idea.

This interview is with the amazing lady, wife, and mother of five, Sam (Samantha) Jackel who now lives just west of Kempsey.

From her earliest memories, right through to her mid-20's, Sam's life was filled with trauma, abuse, lack of self-esteem, and a wrong identity.

Listen as Sam talks about her childhood, and the things she had to do to fit in with friends, and ultimately her husband.

Lots to think about in this first of two interviews with Sam.

In this follow-up show with Ellen Crepaz we are chatting about that great subject of Food and Communications. The importance of food and doing food well with friends and family.

Ellen is of Greek origin and so have a very expressive view of food and its enjoyment.

In this interesting show, we chat with Ellen Crepaz, a lady well know on Social media in the greater Port Macquarie region.

Of Greek decent, Ellen talks about her life, her illnesses and impacts, bellydancing, and the impact on her of being a leader in the community.

Great conversation, and lots to learn.
