    Living lightly: lessons from three years living on a boat with Ally Wilson | Ep 188

    What does it really mean to live lightly, to trade walls for water, and routine for flow? In this episode, we sit down with Ally Wilson, who has spent the past three years living aboard a wide-beam narrowboat with her husband, Tim, and their cat, Fuji. Cruising the canals and rivers of the UK, Ally has built a life that’s equal parts adventurous, practical, and deeply peaceful. Together, we explore the realities and rewards of life afloat: from learning how to manage power, water, and waste, to navigating canal locks and finding Wi-Fi strong enough to run a business from the boat. Ally shares how this slower, more intentional lifestyle has reshaped her mindset, offering lessons in simplicity, patience, and presence. It’s a conversation about freedom, balance, and what it means to create a home that moves with you. Whether you’re curious about boat life, alternative living, or simply finding a gentler rhythm in your own world, this episode will leave you inspired to rethink what “enough” really means. ☕ Grab a cuppa, meet Fuji the boat cat, and join us for a journey that floats - both literally and figuratively. Ally Wilson is a continuous cruiser exploring the UK’s canals and rivers on a wide-beam narrowboat with her husband Tim and their boat cat, Fuji (yes, named after the camera film). After years behind cameras and computers, Ally chose a slower, waterborne life: two-week moorings, solar power, lock days, and sunrise coffees on the bow. She shares the practical magic of life afloat - resourcefulness, routine, and the joy of waking up to a new view, while rekindling her love of photography through black-and-white film.  You can find out more about Ally and her work here: Website: https://www.redrocketstudio.co.uk/ for the live training Boating stuff: https://www.instagram.com/wilsonswaterywanderings  Fuji: https://www.instagram.com/fujitheboatcat  Image explorers page: http://imageexplorers.com/

    Finding your rhythm: reinventing life through music and creativity with Arnaly Arriaga Blanco | Ep 187

    In this episode, we explore what it means to rediscover yourself through creativity and rhythm. Our guest, Arnaly Arriaga Blanco, shares her story of personal reinvention — from teaching Spanish and working as a voiceover artist to returning to her lifelong passion for music and performance. Arnaly reflects on how music shapes language learning, communication, and even the way we experience the world. She discusses the intersection of art and technology, including how AI has changed creative industries, and how human connection still shines through voice, tone, and emotion. The conversation also dives into the role of Toastmasters in building confidence and expression, the neuroscience behind how music activates our brains, and the power of creativity as a daily practice — whether through writing, rhythm, or simply showing up for what inspires you. This episode is a reminder that creativity isn’t just for artists; it’s a pathway to rediscover energy, purpose, and possibility in everyday life. Born in Venezuela and now based in Canada, Arnaly Arriaga Blanco has built a life around music, language, and creativity. She began performing as a child with the Venezuelan group Las Voces Blancas and later studied piano before discovering a love for languages during a family move to Montreal. Fluent in Spanish, English, and French, she initially earned a degree in Business Administration but soon returned to the stage, performing in musical theatre and forming her own band. Arnaly went on to earn a Bachelor’s in Music from McGill University, performing at the Montreal Jazz Festival and touring Quebec with Brazilian artist Paulo Ramos. Back in Venezuela, she recorded her debut album Siente, and later, after relocating permanently to Canada, released Culture Shock—a Music Nova Scotia–nominated album for Jazz/World Recording of the Year. Now leading two Latin music bands, Los-Banda-Los and Organi-K, Arnaly continues to share her passion for Salsa, Merengue, and Cumbia. Alongside her music career, she works as a Spanish teacher, professional voiceover artist, and award-winning Toastmaster. She also writes La Maleta de Arnaly on Substack, a weekly newsletter blending humour, reflection, and stories from her Venezuelan roots—always bringing together her love of language, storytelling, and rhythm.
