Mehr This Is Not How I Made It.

This podcast is a twist on the typical 'success' stories we all see and know about - except I want to shed light on the stories that otherwise may remain unknown. Real people reflecting on where they thought they were going to be at this stage and age in comparison to where they actually are today; the peaks and troughs and unexpected plot twists; people who like you and me thought some things would be different by now. By no means better or worse - life has a way of surprising you when you least expect it. And actually, on reflection, life in theory is the sum of our choices. You may not have made it to the life you imagined (yet, anyway), but you have made it here for a reason.

Episode 2: Eddy's Story

Eddy I had the pleasure of meeting in 2023 when he very kindly lent me furniture he was not using for my new house. Fast forward three years and a lot has changed! Not only have we become friends but he has recently become a father, changed careers into property - after a near spell of us going into business together - and looks forward to his retirement dream of opening up a restaurant and being a chef. But as we know, life has a way of surprising us when we least expect it; is this what he planned for or hoped would happen in his life?

Series Two: Spring Special - Laura's Story

To kick off series two - Laura O'Sullivan funnily enough I went to school with; fifteen (plus) years later, we reconnected to share her whereabouts and experiences from then to now. Including losing her dad at at 25, separating from her husband due to betrayal, two miscarriages, and finding her true purpose in life by understanding now what she is passionate about. As well as being a mum of two both children and dogs, Laura is a freelance marketeer and loves nothing more than binge watching a series with her favourite dinner. But is this what she planned for or hoped would happen in her life?
