Gemma Ray is a powerhouse who wears many hats. Her most important role is being a mother but she is also a best selling author, a radio presenter, a podcast host, and head of content for Body Smart Fitness.
In this episode we talk about the importance of self-discipline, making the most out of your life and so much more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST
Gemma started her radio career at 19 when she got her first job and she did that for 10 years doing many different things and loved it all. She then moved on and got a job in a PR company and was there until she moved on to freelancing and became a communications coach before moving back to Body Smart Fitness as their head of content.
Gemma shares her breakdown and the lessons it taught her and how she’s coming out on the other side.
Legacy for Gemma is how you’re remembered and the lasting impact that you leave. For her own legacy, through Body Smart Fitness, Gemma is part of a legacy that is changing the future for a lot of people. She is also part of a knife crime awareness initiative and that campaign means she’s part of a team that is potentially changing a young person’s life.
Gemma loves jewellery and she shares details of some wonderful pieces both for her personally and pieces in the family. She also talks of getting her 3 rings modelled into one; her wedding ring, her engagement ring and the ring her husband gave her when they just started dating. A ring is not just a ring, it tells a story of their love, and the ring is a reminder of that love that she can carry all the time.
For her advice on living a meaningful life and leaving a legacy, comes down to values. For Gemma, hers are trust, fun, positivity and expression, as long as she’s practising one of the values she's happy with but the most important one is trust, which also encompasses truth, speaking your truth to yourself and others. Don’t be scared to be who you are.
