Well, the spicy cough finally caught up with me but thank goodness I squeezed this one in earlier so I could get it to you before Easter. Today’s guest epitomises everything that gets me excited about life and its many twists and turns plus she's even more special because she was nomi-yay-ted by someone in the yayborhood.




So first off, very big thank you to the lovely Emily de Wiljes for listening to the show and for taking the time to submit this beautiful story. I probably wouldn’t have discovered our guest without you, so I LOVE encouraging you all to whistleblow in the best way possible so that we can shine a light on yayborhood heroes like today's.




Introducing, Alison Gordon who has one of the coolest collection of careers I’ve encountered and is a wonderful reminder of the unexpected ways your dots can connect. From starting out in the Army to becoming an Antarctic and Arctic expedition leader, a surprise connection between Antarctica and maggots then led her into eco-friendly and sustainable dog food.




Every moment of this conversation had me absolutely captivated - Alison is humble, funny and infinitely clever and it was a lovely change to know very little about her before our chat and get to learn everything for the first time along with you guys. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did...
