First broadcast as part of our 31Women project which broadcast a new interview with a different woman every day in March 2023 as our month long celebration of International Women's Day.SHELVED DUE TO ZERO RESOURCES IN 2024, SUPPORT THIS PROJECT FOR UPCOMING 2025 SCHEDULING OF INTERVIEWS. BECOME A VALUED SUPPORTER: https://ko-fi.com/adrianbeckingham/goal?Living in London, UK, Catherine founded the creative arts platform Creative Croydon. Aged 60, she has been facing her own ongoing menopause challenges for 16 years and counting. Working now as a 'menopause activist' using the arts, education and developing programmes, Catherine is also a fledgling storyteller who likes to reframe traditional fairy tales and reset them in a more contemporay landscape often from a lesbian feminist perspective. In this interview we hear wisdom about how we can rewrite our own circumstances with the understanding that each ending is a new beginning. Catherine shares with listeners a debut public performance of her story 'Fable For A Changed Phase' - her remoulding of a traditional Celtic tale, redefined so the female character is more in control of her fate. We also hear a haunting Scots lullaby 'Hyondo'. For more information about Catherine's work please email her at: creativecroydon@gmail.com ABOUT THIS SERIES #31Women is a unique initiative, intuited by our podcast host author Adrian Beckingham, to celebrate International Women's Day (March 8) across the whole month of March 2023. "Why have one day in the year to celebrate women? This podcast series is my push to begin by making it a month instead!" 31 women from a wide range of cultural origins and lifestyles, living in locations across the globe, are interviewed about their lives, passions, hurdles and triumph. These interviews will be broadcast, a different woman each day, across the 31 days of March. The overall focus is to present to listeners a kaleidoscope of experiences about what it is to be a woman in 2023 - discovering through adversity, sometimes tragedy, always trials and triumph, a toolkit of true-life stories which offer a guiding light to act as a catalyst along a pathway toward self-identity, empowerment, and hope.
