It’s celebration time—no matter the outcome! Join the journey as I explore how the pursuit of publication has provided life lesson gold. No… PLATINUM!

Life lesson platinum that applies to parenting, navigating chronic illness, and, well, life!

Finding joy in the experience, irrespective of outcomes. Taking the next right step from the path that reality provides, accepting detours, and being open to unexpected destinations.

With shoutouts to my Mum Squad, Tina Payne Bryson, my spoonie friends at SpoonFull of Strength, and the Australian Society of Authors.

Every step has its lessons, and I’m embracing them all!

Mentioned in Episode 3:

The Naomi Watts movie which I will absolutely have to watch now (and I am sure will represent much more than what I speak to in this podcast), is “Penguin Bloom”

… But, perhaps first…

The book version! Penguin Bloom :HarperCollins Australia

I made reference to Dr Tina Payne Bryson; you can find her parenting books at: https://www.tinabryson.com/books

The music/sound clips within these episodes are original recordings. Piano credit to my 10-year-old daughter (performing her own composition for the purpose of this podcast). Listen beyond the lovely musical introduction to learn what I consider one of the most impactful learnings to come from my experience of chronic illness, and how I apply it to all areas of my life from parenting to pursing publication as an author. It is a self-awareness goody, and I know it will benefit you as well!

Episode 1: Welcome to this introductory episode, where I’ll say hi, let you know why I’m here, and why you should keep listening.
