Nicolette Lafonseca

For 12 years I worked in the third sector, youth homelesness. Then after the credit crunch I moved to France, had a child and a found a new career.
Over a decade of writing for magazines, blogs, including my own, and publishing a craft book I wanted to find a way to connect on a personal level with an audience.
I am a disabled mother of two and a business owner. In order to manage my life I embraced slow creative living and want to talk about these aspects of my life on the podcast. I will also interview a variety of inspirational people who have forged their own path.
I have lived all over the world, my family are Indian but I am white presenting, (I got white privilege from my father instead of child support). Now I am fully settled back in the homestead of the West Yorkshire hills complete with a dog that is built for love not smarts and two wonderful boys who spend most of their day gaslighting me but I hear that is what kids do and I love them.
