Where I am right now, what is that journey about? You know, what's happening there? And I'm still single. I'm still childless. And I'm recovering from health issues. So I really want to encourage people that God is so much still with you and there in the wilderness period.

Welcome, everybody. This is Simon Gilbe with Inspired. Inspired those new to us is all about just meeting different people from different

walks of life. You've got obviously different life experiences and sharing from their

perspective and their faith journey and how God has been close to them, how he's been

at work in and through them. And I just love the variety. And we need to hear this good stuff

because there's so much rubbish and bad and bleak news out there. So this is all about

counteracting that and filling you with renewed vigor and Vim for life day by day with all the

sucker punches that are thrown in the mix. So this week, I'm

really excited. Most weeks we have, so far, I haven't sort of drained the pool of all my buddies, but I can't yet claim Toller Dol Fisher as a buddy because we've not yet met, but I'm really excited to have you on the toe Toller. How are you doing? I'm really good. And I'm excited to call you a buddy too, so we're on the same page.

Brilliant.

Well, actually, I mean,? I'm really good. And I'm excited to call you a buddy too, so we're on the same page.

Brilliant.

Well, actually, I mean, I know we've got loads of mutual buddies. It's just the five that you mention or that give plugs for your book on the front cover or whatever. Three of those. So Becca, I know it's a good mate of yours, and she was on the podcast a few weeks ago. and then Joe Saxon.

I'm interviewing her in a couple of weeks.

And Kathy Madovan,

first time I met her,

funny enough,

was at Spring Harvest. And we were speaking together, you know, both doing sort of main stagey stuff. And she, I just spat my chewing gum into it into a cup. And she picked up my cup and drank it. So that was our lovely first encounter.

Anyways.

So in terms of introducing you, I mean, there's lots of things I could say,

but you're currently an editor and creative director for Women Alive magazine under Premier.

Your book, Still Standing, 100 Lessons from an inverted, comma, unsuccessful life is absolutely fascinating.
