Month: October 2022

Next week I start the final leg of my Theatre Tour…my 2020 Theatre Tour.

A week today, hopefully, the plans that started with a conversation nearly 2 years ago will finally come to fruition. Forgive me if I still sound nervous but the first Swansea Festival concert in 3 years has not been a straightforward affair.

Yesterday I hosted the Swansea City ‘Let’s Talk Menopause in The Workplace’ ‘Conference at the Swansea.com stadium. It might seem odd that I, a man of mature years, should have been asked to host the event but I’m really glad I was there.

This week I had to listen to Goffin and King and digitally go ‘Up on The Roof’. For one whole day I put my phone face down and decided to go cold turkey.

For the first hour or so I felt twitchy, like a smoker in early abstinence wondering what to do with my hands. After a few hours I could feel my stress levels start to lower, I could feel my mind start to unwind.

As Professor of Practice at University of Wales Trinity St David, I was invited to meet and greet the new intake. The most important thing is to do everything, take chances, make connections… but never let anyone steal the dream.
