Are you looking for a way to reset your monkey mind?

Look no further – Girls Around Town‘s very own wellbeing guru Rosalyn Palmer is here to help!

She’ll be on the phone to the studio next weekend to explain all – just what a monkey mind is, how to reset it and how doing so will let you reset not just your business but your life too.

Therapist and coach Ros will be chatting to June in the second hour of the show and, after a quick update about life on a Lincolnshire farm, she’ll be sharing details of the brand new Monkey Business podcasts she’ll be launching on Thursday 21 January.

Perfect timing don’t you think, just a few days before she’s on air?

If you want to learn from great leaders who’ve tamed their monkey minds and find out how their their successes and failures can help you navigate your life and achieve better business outcomes, don’t forget to tune in to 107.8FM or listen online from 11.10am next Sunday, when Ros will be sharing some of the highlights of the first four podcasts, how and where you can access them if you missed them on Thursday…

Getting ready for Boston’s first Book Festival

If you’ve been listening to Girls Around Town for a while now, the name Jane Keightley may very well ring a bell.

A travel writer and tour guide, she’s been on the show several times already and will be back again this weekend for another catch-up with June.

When Jane calls the studio just after 11.20am, no doubt they will both be bemoaning the fact that trips to their beloved Italy haven’t been an option over recent months.

But on a more positive note, she’ll have news of some events hopefully taking place a lot closer to home later this year…

Preparations are already under way for the first ever Boston Book Festival, to be held at Fydell House, Blackfriars Theatre and various other venues around the town in September.

Several authors have already been signed up and Jane and the rest of the team are on the lookout for more to ensure that what they hope will become an annual event gets off to the best possible start.

And as soon as it’s safe to do so she’s looking forward to running more of her popular history tours, sharing her knowledge and passion for her Lincolnshire home town with residents and visitors alike.

In addition to a new extended tour, taking in such places as Hussey Tower and the Maud Foster windmill, she’s also planning one featuring various pubs in the town and, specially for the kids, another one called Beastly Boston!

Make sure you’re tuned in to 107.8FM or listening online in the second hour of the show this Sunday to find out more about the tours and the festival…

And which destinations are at the top of their wish lists when they’re both finally able to start planning a return to la dolce vita!

From one kind of studio to another

Posted on by

Welcome to the first Girls Around Town of 2021!

June will be back in the Radio Newark studio from 10am till 12 noon this weekend, as she always is on Sunday mornings…

And, in a different kind of studio just a few miles up the road, another guest will be waiting to join her by phone for the first interview of the new year!

Upton-based artist and sculptor Susan Isaac will be describing how she’s had to change her business style slightly over the past few months, with the closure of all galleries and the cancellation of so many events and craft fairs.

A self-confessed tech novice, she’s been busy learning more about the online world as a way to keep in touch with people interested in her work and, with the help of daughter Elsa, has been building up her Instagram presence and working on her website.

Now, with the lifting of the second lockdown, some of her recent work is on display at Newark’s Gallery 6 in Between Times, a solo exhibition that’s open for pre-arranged private appointments until Saturday 9 January.

To hear more of Susan’s story, including her plan to invite visitors to view some of her work temporarily set up in her family’s 18th century threshing barn next to her studio once it’s allowed, make sure you’re tuned in to 107.8FM or listening online from 11.20am on Sunday…

And don’t forget to join June from 10am for all the usual features that make Girls Around Town your favourtie Sunday morning show!
