The Happy Hour is back for 2022! 

Holly and Paulina are ready to bring you the best in conversations on sight loss, mental health and wellbeing. And we have a packed show to start the year!

Paulina will be chatting with Andy Shipley from Natural Inclusion to hear all about his Sensory Odyssey and how it can help quiet our minds.

Ellie Marsh will be hearing from Aerialist and Pole Dancer Rachael Storey who will share how fitness has helped empower her and boost her confidence. 

Holly has a great book recommendation to kick off the year.

Before the end, Andy comes back to share the first of his Sensory Odyssey guided exercises. This month's theme: Gravity. 

And finally, for our Music Therapy Moment, award-winning singer, songwriter and recording artist Sarah Caltieri shares her song 'Higher Than Before'.



The Happy Hour Podcast is our trimmed down version of this hour-long show, so if you'd like to listen to the full show with all the amazing songs featured, catch a new episode of the Happy Hour on RNIB Connect Radio every other Monday at 1 PM, with a repeat Thursday at 6 PM and Sunday at 10 am.
