About this listen

Welcome to "Connecting the Dots," a podcast where each episode is a journey through the weeks of our lives. Last year, I embarked on a personal project, "My Life in Weeks," documenting weekly milestones with a simple dot on a wall planner. This year, I'm diving deeper into the world of podcasting by connecting with intriguing people who also prioritise infusing their lives with positive experiences. Each week, I chat with a guest about their "week" or "dot," sharing stories, challenges, and triumphs. We explore how these moments shape our paths and discover the power of connecting the dots together. Join us to find inspiration in everyday lives and perhaps add more good things to your own life along the way.
