    We’ve come to the end of another season of Calder Navigation, and for this special final episode of the season, we’re changing things up!

    The roles have been flipped this episode, and Sam is the one being interviewed instead!

    Her lovely husband, Matt, also a member of the Curious Motion team, has taken questions from the team on all things Curious Motion. Sam gets to chat about music, dreams and aspirations, and what the topic of her TED Talk would be amongst other things. This was a great chance to reflect on the Curious Motion journey so far, and we hope you enjoy listening.

    The podcast is now on pause whilst Sam journeys into motherhood, so thank you so much for listening, and don’t forget there are 20 episodes of Calder Navigation to dive into while we’re on pause. Take care and see you soon!

    Welcome back to Calder Navigation for our penultimate episode of this season, and we're so excited to have Molly Caton on the podcast for this episode!

    Molly is an invaluable member of the Curious Motion community. She first joined us as a participant in our over 55s session, Brews & Grooves, and quickly became a dedicated volunteer. Recently, she’s also taken on a leadership role as a member of our board of directors!

    Molly brings warmth, passion, and a deep commitment to her community in Elland, where she is heavily involved in a number of local activities and charities. Molly enjoys a rich and varied life, and in this episode, takes us through her life and career, how she feels about community, and the wonderful experiences she’s had with her true passion: teaching.

    S4 Ep8: Wendy Stainton Rogers, health psychologist
    Dec 19 2024
    Today, we have the pleasure of welcoming Wendy Stainton Rogers to the Calder Navigation podcast.

    Wendy is a health psychologist who has spent her life fighting against inequalities and injustices, both through her academic work and her dedicated volunteer efforts.

    During the course of Wendy's work, she has been instrumental in challenging societal norms, advocating for equity and diversity at a time when such conversations were still in their infancy.

    Wendy is a self-described troublemaker, and it was a topic that came up a lot during our conversation together! It was such an interesting conversation, and we can't wait for you to hear it.
