Where do I begin?
What makes you nervous? What makes me nervous? Quite truthfully, a good many things. However, the most alarming issue at present would be people falling to learn from the atrocities of the past. It’s both saddening and maddening knowing that scores of people have chosen to rewrite history, reframe past narratives, and in doing so…

What can I say? I selectively juggle.
How do you unwind after a demanding day? First things first, I finish 8 hours of work and then get my 18 year old daughter from her disability provider, where she’s doing a School Leavers Training and Education services for people with disabilities.

At the moment?
How do you use social media? Somewhat intermittently! That is compared to previously, where I was literally glued to social media platforms.

Family is a very complex web …
Describe a positive thing a family member has done for you. I’m the 8th child of ten children. My immediate family served as an almost complete microcosm of society. I had/have siblings ranging from incredibly supportive and compassionate, right through to abusive and narcissistic. I guess that’s just the luck of the draw. Reflecting upon…
