“However, I had to earn a living.” - Gillian, that seemingly innocuous sentence resonates. I was fairly rudderless myself for a while, even though I knew what I enjoyed doing, I couldn’t quite find the right job. And then reality hit. That window of opportunity closed. Time to stop dreaming and pay bills! Your phone call from the BBC sounds like the stuff of dreams. Thank-you for sharing your journey. I’m enjoying the read.

It’s so good to hear from you Sharon. Thank you for your note/message/comment (I’m new to Substack and am still working out what’s what). Finding the balance between money and dreams has always been a problem for me. Glad you’re enjoying the ride.
