It's been a while and we're kicking off a new series with a recording of a live episode we did for the Power of Women (POW) Thanet festival.
I am joined by three changemakers - all of whom have their own relationship and stories of rest: business owner and experienced coach for weary women leaders, Annette Corbett; award-winning comedian, author (The Breakup Monologues, Is Monogamy Dead?) and podcaster Rosie Wilby; and performer storyteller, kindness campaigner and author (How to Be Hopeful, Little Book of Kindness) Bernadette Russell.
Together we shared our own experience of rest and types of rest, discussed where these stories and beliefs have come from and explored how (and if) we can really rest when there is so much ‘good’ to be done in the world.
The other voice you hear is Ruby Rare who hosted the digital day on behalf of POW Thanet.
If you'd like to watch the video (which is BSL interpreted), you can on our You Tube channel here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-khpV_I8JU

My guest on the podcast this week is the wonderful Dr Victoria Powell. Victoria is a writer and lecturer in modern and contemporary art. In 2021 she set up The Gallery Companion, a Substack publication which explores the ideas about life, culture, history and politics that you find in art. She aims to break down the perception that contemporary art is hard to understand by avoiding confusing art speak and talking about it in language that makes sense.
In today's episode:
Why Victoria's teaching, writing and podcast matters in engaging discussion and debate in a respectful way
Finding the things we have in common to bring people together and increase understanding
Personal experiences of rejection and how that impacts the work
What you can get from art if you allow yourself to be unsure
How the Gallery Companion got started
Building your voice from starting small and imagining you're writing or speaking to one person
Not chasing the money and finding the value in other ways
Joys and opportunities of podcasting
Investment in each other and generosity of spirit.
Being okay with uncertainty

What do you do when people contact you to 'just pick your brains'? Do you say yes, do you say no?
We often give so much away and this can make you feel resentful, not least because it often doesn't feel like a fair exchange. It feels tricky when bigger organisations ask and when it's a friend, it's hard to say no.
So, what can you do about it and how can you do it in a way that feels aligned to your values? Let's chat about it.
