Sometimes when we’re talking on the phone, Dori says something that makes me say,

“Stop! I’ll send you a link, we have to record this!”

Dori started waxing lyrical about the ‘wonders of love’ and I realised we definitely had a good cop/bad cop discussion going on here…

So love…

Who do you side with?

So…

I’ve been thinking about the nature of karma and the concept of revenge…

I decided to reveal what I find is the easiest way to deal with people who do us wrong…

Just get on with your life and let Karma take care of it in her own time and if you’re lucky, you’re there to witness the Karma Butt Kicking 😁

So, Dori and I are procrastinating…

She’s been openly procrastinating and I’ve been doing it secretly 😳

But what it comes down to is this, we decided that, to grow our businesses, we should both explore the paid option on Substack.

That was decided a month or so ago, but neither of us have even attempted to do it.

So I invited Dori for a chat…

This is Dori’s favourite video. If people left parties the way they leave Facebook.

We need to talk about failure…

If you’d rather read, I actually checked AND EDITED 😁 the transcription this week, so I highly recommend it.

I would love to hear your views, either in comment form or in an episode…

In this random conversation about Markets and Marketing, we examine;

Why Cake stalls/booths are bad…

Why Dori is great to have around at an event and

Why you should always have small ticket items on your table.

I also come prepared to solve some of Dori’s issues with her ADHD and we remember how she came to terms with actually having ADHD in the first place…

This is Dori’s collaboration with Main Street Market

In this episode, I have a mini-rant to get off my chest, which encompasses not only Billionaires, but those who spend their time, on the billionaire’s plaything, and everywhere else, complaining about the billionaire and his plaything… 🤦🏽‍♀️

We discuss how we got to a place where wealth hoarders are admired, then we somehow get into my terrible parent teacher meetings when I was a teacher…

As always, Dori leaves us with something positive to ponder…

Please Note: f-bombs and salty language is dotted about, let’s be adult about it.

This week, aside from a brief visit to the Department of Transport, Dori and I discuss social media.

Have people simply forgotten how to behave? Why do we take bad comments to heart? Is everyone on social media just needy?

We decide on what we think is the best social media app (it’s one most people have never heard of 😁) and Dori leaves us with what she has realised is the secret to enjoying social media

I recently opened GarageBand, it’s been a while, but I wanted to compose some new theme music, things were going great until…

Well, the exact same thing happened, that happened the first time I used GarageBand, so I had to find my Old School with Amanda episode to listen to how I sorted it out last time, back in 2018…

I thought you might like to hear it too 😁

In this episode, I share my thoughts on having a holiday on Saint Lucia, some dos and dont’s, some hacks, some suggestions…

I start with giving you an overview of the island. I share my advice on getting the best advice from the social media groups and I describe my perfect honeymoon. (I’ve never been married 😁)

NOTE: I do want to highlight two hotels in the South - Sugar Beach Viceroy have long had a policy of supporting local artists and craftspeople and since recording, I have found out that Ladera has a ‘Local Immersion Studio’ which does a great job supporting local artists and crafts people.

Welcome to more Random Thoughts, this time I’ve invited my friend, Dori Sonnenberg, to meander through our thoughts together.

Like a typical Brit and a Canadian, we start off talking about the weather, but then…

I have a bit of a rant about people booking trips to the Caribbean…

Dori goes into her method of packing, which I completely destroy 😳

We take a slight detour into the education systems in the UK & Canada and a quick spin around US TV High School shows.

For a while we are shook by some breaking news that leads us both to get a bit nostalgic, but we pull ourselves together…

and we end up with me challenging Dori with a little personality quiz.
