Help to escape your living room this weekend!
Hello everyone! In these times of uncertainty and trying to stay lockin sane, it's good to escape reality for a minute and have a laugh....so.....I wanted to let you know have just released my debut transformational travel memoir The Inside Hustle: A Mystical Misfit's Travel Adventure Into The Unknown today! I hope its ok to share here, as my neighbours did ask me to post it :) E-book only at the moment, sadly due to Covid.
Blurb: Ignite your inner adventurer and delve into the unknown on this journey of transformation. The Inside Hustle shakes off the ordinary for the extraordinary, delivering thought-provoking wisdom for the now moment with fierce authenticity, honesty and humour.
Living through 9/11 in New York, Joanna Walden experienced a moment of clarity, which propelled her to search for something greater than her 9-5 existence. Leaving her high-flying career on Madison Avenue behind her, she hikes the Camino de Santiago through Spain beginning the comedy of errors in her search for both purpose and a greater truth. Journeying around the globe she climbs Mount Kilimanjaro, imbibes plant medicine, consults energy healers and visits sacred sites, determined to solve the problem of herself. It’s sex, drugs & spirituality; an unconventional path from dark to light, and a modern version of personal evolution. It’s a transformational travel adventure taking you on a wild ride, which is as entertaining as it is enlightening. Are you ready to unlock the truth of who you really are?

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
