Matt Baker MBE

About this episode

<p>One of the nation’s best loved presenters, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mattbakerofficial/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Matt Baker</a>, brings his infectious enthusiasm to the podcast this week! By happy accident, this episode is all about midlife pivots and making bold steps towards doing more of the work you love. Listen to hear the unlikely story of how Matt came to be on our screens presenting <em>Blue Peter; </em>how his dyslexia set him up with what he describes as a high tolerance for failure and gave him a sense of fearlessness; how he navigated the role reversal that many of us go through in midlife when our parents begin to need more help and support; and there’s even an old fashioned midlife chat about the thankless task of trying to exercise with a bad back! Head Tutor at <em>The Raymond Blanc Gardening School</em> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/augusts_garden/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">August Bernstein </a>also joins to talk about making the most of your green spaces, and how you can get started on growing your own vegetables with nothing more than a windowsill.&nbsp;</p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
