Hips don’t lie with Paddy Creaven: Revisited

A couple of months back, I sat with Paddy Creaven for an honest and open podcast. He was on a weight loss mission while trying to recuperate after surgery. His 'failure is not an option' proverb, saw him through this challenging time. The positive and supportive reaction to his story warranted a revisit. His story continues, with a bright and active future.  Music credit: Mokka Music, Hadwin Chanel

Charlotte’s Vision with Virgie, Michelle and Caroline

Charlotte Sweeney was a young woman who embraced life, loved new challenges and had a heart of gold. A metastatic breast cancer diagnosis may have put an obstacle in her way, but her zest for life kept her going in the face of adversity. Sadly, she was taken from her family and friends in December of last year. As a keen Scientist, she explored her illness, and now in her memory, her family and friends want to continue her legacy with Charlotte's Vision. I sat with her mam, Virgie and two friends, Michelle and Caroline. We talked fondly about Charlotte, and the upcoming New Year's Eve Ball. Music credit: Mokka Music and The Hadwin Channel.
