In today's episode I talk about adapting to technology changes, especially for people who are getting older. With new AI technology, it can be a challenge to decipher when things are really what ...

2025/11/06

Do you consider yourself to be rude or polite? Is the word "thank-you" a forgotten term, or is it something you say regularly? Do you pass wind in public and laugh out loud, or do your best to remember the old saying "a time and a place?" Ah, we all have different opinions on manners, but one thing is for sure: to bring your best manners forward when working with people is a great way to share kindness. In today's episode I share a few stories and discuss ways that through good manners we can...

With Halloween around the corner, I also reflect on the challenges of fireworks, and how time and place can make a difference for those affected.

Cluck off - I'm busy recording. Ok, I'm being a bit cheeky. This is my first episode in my new podcast series. I'm Lindy, and I just entered the last year in my 50's. My latest line is, "Don't mind me, I'll be 60 in a year." It's true, I'm 59 years old and headed into a different time of my life. I don't care anymore if my socks match or if I wore the same pants three days in a row. Make-up or no-make up, I am still me and that's the way it is. I'm young en...
