From fashion to funerals

It’s not unusual for guests on Girls Around Town to be talking about why and how they made the decision to change their careers.

But switching from fashion consultant to civil celebrant? That surely has to be a first and definitely one worth hearing more about…

Which is exactly what you’ll be doing when you tune in to this weekend’s show!

Based in Newark, just a stone’s throw away from the Radio Newark studios in fact, Mandy Moran will be on the phone to tell June – and you – what prompted her to take on such a role after many years working for two well-known clothing shops in town.

The new job’s not just about funerals though – as a celebrant, Mandy will be helping people to organise weddings and christenings too…

Tune in to 107.8FM or listen online from 11.20am on Sunday for her story – she’s an artist as well, so no doubt she’ll be talking about her passion for pencil and ink drawings during their chat.

And don’t miss the rest of your favourite weekend show – as usual, there’ll be plenty of gossip and good music to enjoy between 10am and 12 noon!

Reconnect to your passions, purpose, positivity and plan

Are you feeling stuck? Lacking motivation and direction?

Next weekend’s guest on Girls Around Town could have just the answer you’re looking for!

On the phone to the studio from 11.20am, Deb Watts will be talking to June about The Power of Women Experience, a group designed to help you reconnect to your passions, your purpose, your positivity and your plan moving forward.

Top of the to-do list for Deb and team mates Carol Killett and Stacey Jones right now is finalising the details of their upcoming four-day retreat-style Experience.

They’re busy checking out venues, picking a date and putting together a programme of activities which includes a personalised exercise programme to energise and kickstart those happy hormones, a selection of art and craft workshops, a range of evening pamper packages and much more.

If all goes to plan, the event will be taking place in January so make sure you’re tuned in to 107.8FM or listening online from 10am to 12 noon next Sunday for the latest update from Deb. She’ll have details of exactly what’s in store and how to join the Facebook group so you’re poised and ready to grab a place as soon as bookings open!

In the meantime, why not check out their new website? It’s still a work in progress but you can Meet The Team behind The Power of Women Experience there and there’ll be plenty of new information coming soon…

Four steps to fulfilment in love

Another published author on Girls Around Town this weekend – but fact, not fiction this time when Penny Briant will ringing the studio to talk to June just after 11.20am.

An accredited life coach since 2015 with two books to her name already, she’s currently working on her autobiography, telling her personal story which she hopes will inspire other women to turn their own lives around just as she did…

Like lots of other small business owners, during lockdown Penny was unable to see clients face to face and, with many of them uncomfortable about the idea of ‘virtual’ coaching sessions, she was left with time on her hands.

But she put that time to good use, reflecting on what she had to offer as a coach and how she could build on that to help women have the best relationship with themselves and then go on to create loving relationships with others. 

She’ll still be helping women who are unhappy in their relationships but is now also qualified to offer couples therapy to those that choose it through her four-step Fulfilled in Love Formula.

Tune in to 107.8FM or listen online from 10am to 12 noon on Sunday to find out more about those four steps…

And how following them will help give women the confidence to make the right choices for themselves and in doing so take ownership of their happiness and find fulfilment in their relationships.

The most important relationship is the one you have with you! Get that right and everything falls into place.
