She Has Wings

How my podcast began .......

Firstly, I want to thank you so much for joining me here on my little corner of the internet. The world is full of twists and turns, fierce storms and battles to faced. But when you visit my site, listen to my podcast and read these words right now, I want you to feel peaceful and hopeful for the future. Remember, even in the darkest of situations, there is always hope :

"Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light "

Albus Dumbledore

That is what we are doing right now, switching on the light.

It hasn't always been this way for me. I grew up in an awful environment , the house was quiet and I was too loud, too curious, too much. That feeling stayed with me for me for a long time. I was squashed down to dilute myself whenever possible. And I hated myself for it. I now realise I'm most likely neurodivergent and feel things very strongly , but was taught to brush my feelings under the carpet, and get on with it.

I married young and began to have children, these children are the loves of my life and I have learnt so much through spending my time with them. I became a single parent in 2019 ( just before lockdown in 2020) and I discovered that I quite liked being on my own, and I actually really enjoyed lockdown , myself and the children. I have such fond memories of this time, meals together , walks and a slower pace of life. It was healing. It was at this time that a good friend of mine suggested starting a podcast as she thought I had encourgement to share. I remember firstly thinking i should wait, but curiousty got the better of me and I hit tecord. And I am so glad I did.
