Lucy Loves Liam Heffernan

In this week’s episode I’m joined by the lovely award-winning podcast producer, Liam Heffernan. Liam has had lots of experience over the years, from studying film at university and volunteering on the local hospital radio, to working for the BBC and hosting his very own podcast show The Friday Film Club.  I was inspired hearing Liam’s journey, as he took a risk leaving his stable banking job when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, to follow his passion of working in podcast and radio full-time. This risk obviously paid off, and I hope it inspires some of you to not settle in a job you aren’t happy in!   With I’m sure lots more exciting things to come, I wonder what else is on Liam’s agenda!     Here are the highlights:  {2:00} Stop waffling on your podcast  {5:10} Critics have a high opinion of themselves  {07:34} Stuck in a rut after school  {11:46} Charlie’s documentary  [13:23} Losing focus   {14:55} Learn to listen to compliments   {22:48} Resolution’s cause more of a distraction    Liam’s Book Recommendations:  1984 by George Orwell  Les Misérables by Victor Hugo    Find out more about Lucy and listen to more episodes at http://lucygourlay.com
