On The Radio

I had a brief interview slot on BBC Radio Somerset today, to promote the Bower Hinton Bike Ride. Imagine my surprise when the interview didn't really touch on the bike ride in any depth, but rather discussed my spiritual path. I was both amazed and thrilled! I was aware that people listening may well be experiencing a sense of spiritual hunger, so I was wanting to connect with anyone who would perhaps describe themselves as a 'seeker' and somehow point them in the right direction. Encouraging people to get out and walk the land and connect with Nature in the now, in the moment, seemed the best and most appropriate way. I was really pleased that I was invited to enlarge on this, and was able to talk about connecting with The All. It was both a surprise and a joy.

I'm not used to this kind of thing, and I know I could have done better, but if you want to listen to my brief conversation, BBC Radio Somerset do a Listen Again feature. I don't know how long this link will be active, but if you're quick and click on the 'Morning Jo' link below, and then forward to roughly 2.40 you will hear me come on just after The Bangles!

Hope you enjoy it!

Aww, what a lovely thing to say, thank you Mary! I've never thought of my voice as smoooooth, you've made me blush!

Thanks for your good wishes about the Bike Ride, much appreciated. What we need now is good weather, and it's not looking hopeful at the moment!
