In this solo episode, I look at the film Slumdog Millionaire and the lessons it can teach us about looking back at our pasts and connecting the dots to who we are now, in the present. I also look at what we want to manifest in the future – in terms of our dream career, our dream lifestyle, and the person we want to become.

I discuss the concept of being in alignment with our goals and aspirations and share insights on reverse engineering our desired future by taking proactive steps in the present. Drawing from personal anecdotes and examples, I explore the idea of manifesting our dreams through deliberate action and intention.

Remember, life is short, and we have the power to shape our own destinies. So, let's Slumdog Millionaire our lives and make our dreams a reality!

In this episode, I talk to my friend Lauren K. Nixon – author, poet, editor, and one of my best friends since we were 11, when we met on the very first day of high school!

An ex-archaeologist enjoying life in the slow-lane, Lauren K. Nixon is an indie author fascinated by everyday magic. She is the author of numerous short stories, Mayflies, The Fox and the Fool, The House of Vines – the first book in the Chambers Magic series – and her most recent novel, The Last Human Getaway. She also curates The Superstars, a vibrant community of writers, poets and artists.

Lauren K. Nixon is a member of the team of consultant proofreaders working for Coleman Editing – my other business! – providing freelance copy editing services for aspiring writers.

In this episode, we discuss all things magic (in preparation for my DIY documentary, Movify Your Life, which is all about creating Magical Movie Moments on the road) – including everyday magic, the magic in her books, the magic of travel, magical memories, magical films and TV shows, and more!

In this episode I talk to sustainable tourism consultant, Samantha Smits.

As a sustainable tourism consultant, Samantha guides tourism companies in enhancing their brand reputation, accessing the sustainable tourism market, and saving resources, thereby saving both time and money. By integrating sustainability into their operations and communicating this to their customers, Samantha's clients differentiate themselves within the industry, aligning with the growing demand for responsible travel experiences. And, of course, contributing to a future-proof tourism industry and business.

In the interview, we discuss how to travel more sustainably – and how to be more eco-friendly when we're at home – Samantha's love of Tanzania, our mutual love of dogs and the stray dogs we meet abroad, the concept of Revenge Travel, and so much more!

In this solo episode, I talk about how Emily Dickinson gave me a kick up the arse. Bear with me here… I've recently been watching the show 'Dickinson' on Apple TV, and it suddenly struck me: I have it so easy! As a woman these days, I can vote, I can live alone, I can travel alone, I'm not the 'property' of a man, I can write and publish my thoughts, I can start businesses, I can own property, I can achieve all my wildest dreams just from sitting down at my laptop and going online… so why aren't I doing all these things?! If Emily Dickinson were alive right now, think of all the incredible things she could achieve with her amazing talent. And then think of all the things you're able to achieve… but haven't. All the dreams you've left unchecked, when – really – there aren't any barriers stopping us from doing so. Not like in the 1800s, anyway. And that is my story of how Emily Dickinson gave me a kick up the arse.

In this solo episode, I talk about creating your own meaningful travel bucket list – a bucket list full of destinations, personal development goals, core values, and more. Travel should be intentional, meaningful, and purposeful, and we can ensure that our trips help our personal growth if we just do a bit of reflecting and goal setting before planning our next adventure. I give you ideas for destinations, activities, and reasons behind why you want to go to all these amazing places, so you can create a meaningful travel bucket list of your very own!

In this solo episode, I discuss one of my favourite comedians – Dave Gorman, who comes from my hometown of Stafford and who also attended Walton High School, just like me! I recently read two of his books - 'America Unchained' and 'Are You Dave Gorman?' (written with Danny Wallace) and watched the accompanying documentary and TV show. I loved them both, and in this episode, I tell you why – as well as encouraging you to go on your own ridiculous quest this year!

In the first of my quickie 'Spotlight' episodes, I talk about one of my favourite places in England: Shakespeare's Stratford-Upon-Avon. I tell you all about my past trips (of which there have been many), and I give you recommendations on where to go and what to do, from Shakespeare's Birthplace to seeing a play at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, having a drink in the beer garden at the Dirty Duck, visiting Shakespeare's grave in the beautiful Trinity Church, having a Shakesbeer at The Garrick pub on the High Street, visiting the Old Thatch Tavern, going on the big wheel, saying hi to the swans on the river, and much, much more!

In this solo episode I go over the main things that can go wrong while travelling – and why we shouldn't use these things as an excuse not to go anywhere! I tell my own stories of things that have gone wrong with my trips and what I did (as well as things that have gone wrong for my friends and travel buddies), and I give you some ideas on how we can prepare for these things, and how we can deal with these issues whenever they arise.

So, let's talk about:

• Lost luggage

• Getting lost

• Delayed and cancelled flights

• Thieves

• When SatNavs go bad

• Helpful tools and apps

• How to be prepared for anything

• And, of course, naked burglars!
