What's in the Goody Bag with Julie Kent MBE

What makes a man leave the City where he could make lots of money to become a photographer? But Spencer is no ordinary photographer having shot Hilary Clinton, Bono, Vivienne Westwood and most of the celebs that sit on Graham Norton's sofas. Oh, he shot Graham too, many times!He had just returned from a week in New York when we recorded this podcast and was very excited at what his trip could lead to...... and what does he put in my Goody Bag for me to auction or raffle for The Pied Piper Appeal?Follow Spencer here:-website: https://StillMoving (stillmovingmedia.com)Instagram: https://Still Moving (@stillmovingmedia) • Instagram photos and videosFacebook: https://(7) Still Moving | Cheltenham | FacebookLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/spencer-mcpherson-b1066323Join the conversation on:-Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekentmbe/Twitter: https://twitter.com/juliekentmbe Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Julie-Kent-MBE-106786657955109LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-kent-mbe#whatsinthegoodybagWebsite: https://juliekentmbe.com

I love a man with a sense of humour and 70 year old Martin has had to have a sense of humour working with temperamental musicians, actors and artists for years and years.After studying to be a teacher, but wanting to be a composer he ended up becoming a sound engineer for bands all over the world. He has a genuine interest in how things sound and especially the microphones used to get that sound and has been responsible for recording and doing the live sound for Pam Ayres and Clive James at their theatre shows.I have played in bands with Martin and worked with him on song demos for years. It is always lots of fun when he is around. People used to write songs and send them to him to record. He would send them to me to learn and record, maybe add a sax or flute solo and send it back to them. Happy Times!He is still enjoying the life of entertainment and is not thinking of retiring yet although he doesn't carry all the equipment in anymore!What do you think he puts in my goody bag?Follow Martin here      * Website: https://www.martinmitchellsmicrophones      * Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/martin.mitchell.9026    Join the conversation oninstagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekentmbe/twitter: https://twitter.com/juliekentmbe facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Julie-Kent-MBE-106786657955109#whatsinthegoodybagWebsite: https://juliekentmbe.com

What a treat to chat to Kevin who says 'I've never done a hard days work in my life' meaning he has loved every single minute of being a professional cricketer since the age of 16 and is now in his sixties.He talks about coaching Joe Root at the age of 12 and seeing his potential and what a great life cricket has given him.  He expected to have retired by now but it just hasn't worked out that way and is enjoying his time at Worcestershire despite being a proud northerner! Having studied Jazz & Light Music in Leeds it was great to listen to the Leeds accent again and am pretty sure I saw him play at Headingly as I went to watch some matches there.I hope you enjoy his positivity and energy and most importantly... What does he put in my Goody Bag which will definitely be auctioned in aid of The Pied Piper Appeal in Gloucestershire to raise funds for sick children.Follow Kevin heretwitter: https://twitter.com/sharpykev0604LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kevin-sharp-15270151Join the conversation oninstagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekentmbe/twitter: https://twitter.com/juliekentmbe facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Julie-Kent-MBE-106786657955109#whatsinthegoodybagWebsite: https://juliekentmbe.com

I was in awe of this young woman when I chatted to her about battling chronic illnesses such as Fibromyalgia, Pernicious Anaemia and Myalgicencephalomyelitis. I cant even pronounce them!It is an amazing story of how she fought to get diagnosed and now wants to encourage those of you with allergies and painful illnesses to not give up but pursue the NHS until they help you.Her instagram page has given Nic a platform to talk openly about her daily struggle and raise awareness to help others. She is happy to take messages and encourage anyone who is struggling with these chronic conditions.Not everyone puts something physical in my Goody Bag.  Nic wanted the opportunity to tell her story, which would then give others the courage to talk about their own pain and suffering, knowing that someone understands and will try to help.Follow Nic hereinstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chronically_musing_along Join the conversation oninstagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekentmbe/twitter: https://twitter.com/juliekentmbe facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Julie-Kent-MBE-106786657955109#whatsinthegoodybagWebsite: https://juliekentmbe.com

 Ricky is a Magician, Hypnotist & Pickpocket who has been performing for over 10 years at weddings, parties and other special occasions across the country firstly part time as his journey began at Argos. He took the plunge to be a full time magician  just before lockdown and had some wonderful ways of making his clients feel better about their cancelled weddings including his own! He loves to make people happy and smile and says 'I believe that magic is a great way to make any occasion unforgettable.'What struck me about Ricky when I first met him was his wonderful thoughtfulness and kindness.

It is exciting enough to have an actor on my podcast but one that has progressed so quickly to producer and actor and I actually interviewed him in Los Angeles made it even more exciting!Luca was born  in Cardiff, Wales, to italian parents and began training as a performer at 19 years old under the instruction of Rebecca Hardy,  before completing his degree in acting for Stage, T.V. & Film at The American Musical & Dramatic Academy in Los Angeles.Luca has secured several roles including Criminal Minds Beyond Borders, Grey's Anatomy, and has worked with Godfather's very own, Francis Ford Coppola in Distant Vision.His latest feature film, Elephants, has just joined the festival circuit after great reviews & screenings, both in America and the U.K. He plays the lead role of Lee Riley, as well as being a producer in this true 'slice of life' relationship story. Luca has also recently been invited to join the BAFTA Newcomers Academy and is incredibly grateful to be part of such an iconic group of talented artists.While all this is going on for him he has also given his time for others & gives the most amazing gift into my Goody Bag.Enjoy.twitter: https://twitter.com/GLucaMalacrino facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GLucaMalacrinoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glucamalacrino/Website: https://www.lucamalacrino.com/   Join the conversation oninstagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekentmbe/twitter: https://twitter.com/juliekentmbe facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Julie-Kent-MBE-106786657955109#whatsinthegoodybagWebsite: https://juliekentmbe.com

To start with I struggled to figure out why Heather worked as a Welsh Business Leader as her effervescent personality gave me the impression that should would be in a field of arty creativity.  As  we chatted through her journey from chartered town planner to CEO of the Welsh Chamber where she uses her black book of business leaders across the globe to make connections that businesses in Wales need to sustainable grow .Her ballsy feminine determination shines through and we managed to cover all sorts of topics, including being a woman at the beginning in a mans world and how things have moved onWe also touched on the stresses of women in the boardroom when the menopause kicks in and your brain turns to mush!Heather is entertaining, extremely able and wonderfully funny! and the big question.What does she put in my Goody Bag?twitter: https://twitter.com/CEO_chamberwalesfacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chamberswales/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/swccheather/   Join the conversation oninstagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekentmbe/twitter: https://twitter.com/juliekentmbe facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/Julie-Kent-MBE-106786657955109#whatsinthegoodybagWebsite: https://juliekentmbe.com
