Talk on to Walk on with Michelle Walters

Trailer for: Shop girl to West End star and beyond - Eithne Browne

Season 2, Ep. 15

From Blood Brothers to Shirley Valentine, Educating Rita and so many more Liverpool born actress Eithne Browne has had a fascinating career in theatre and on screen. 

 

Her story leaping from shop girl to West End Blood Brothers star, stepping in for Barbara Dixon is fabulous.

Eithne went on to star on stage in Shirley Valentine and Educating Rita to name a few and was famed nationally for her five year role as Chrissy Rogers the long running, British soap opera Brookside, going on to appear in TV soap classics such as Coronation Street and Emmerdale. 

 

Locally in Liverpool, Eithne is adored not only for the joy she has brought to our local theatre goers over the years but for the depth and charisma she brings to each of her onstage characters.

 

Credits include Twopence to Cross the Mersey, Scouse Trap and Brick Up the Mersey Tunnels the latter which alone played to around 250,000 people. 

 

At 68 and currently performing in “A Thong for Europe” celebrating Liverpool’s incredible hosting of the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest, Eithne is complete proof that age is just a number. Eithne shares a fabulous story and together, we share our mutual passion for theatre and our beloved Liverpool but we also go deeper into the mindset of this incredibly inspirational woman whose energy, vibrancy and passion for life is simply inspiring. 


Her observational humour and quick wit brings many a laugh in our podcast conversation.

 

Let's talk on to walk on with Eithne Browne and see where it leads.

    Do you ever take the time to stop for a minute, and think about the last few weeks or months and what’s happened in your life or more precisely what you’ve achieved? There are no rules with timing and we can be rubbish at remembering but we want to get better and help you do the same. So this is our offering based on the first half of 2024. To help us add value we’ve linked our reflections to Patrick’s Midlife to 100 life pillars that he’s chosen as key to living a long and healthy life. They are:- physical health, mental wellness, sleep, nutrition and social interaction/relationships. We discuss how we’ve stayed connected with family and old friends, both at home and abroad; we reflect on some personal achievements and how the simple things in life, like gardening, dogs and sleep keep us sane in our busy world. So have a listen and then take a minute to think about what you’ve achieved during the first half of the year. We promise you’ll be pleasantly surprised plus it will help generate thoughts and ideas as to your plans for the year ahead. So let’s ‘talk on to walk on’ and see where it leads…Please subscribe to our YouTube channel to help build our community.More episodes and information on our offer: www.talkontowalkon.comIG @talkontowalkonFB @Talkontowalkon #midlifepodcast #midlifegoals #midlifecouple #midlifechat #midlifejourney #midlifemindset #liverpoolpodcast #midlifeaudit #lifeafter40 #lifeafter50 #midlife

    48:03||Season 4, Ep. 7
    On average the UK spends £27bn on clothes, sends 300,000 tonnes of clothes to landfill each year, when it is believed 95% of those garments could be re-worn or upcycled.Birl is making resale easy and profitable for purpose-driven brands by offering a single button on a brand’s product display page to allow customers to trade in and receive credits to purchase new products whilst then handling the logistics, resale & recycling of all trade-ins on the brand’s behalf (think Klarna, but a force for good).Our conversation with Peter Lydon, co-founder, includes:-·     how he has already secured Birl's first fashion brands to offer the trade-in process to customers.·     The opportunities and frustrations of being a tech disruptor in the fashion sector·     Who he turns to when he has a wobble·     How, as an adopted Scouser, he is now giving back.·     how the power of the collective, rather than going alone, can help you go further.·     his unique working routine as he juggles work and family life (believe us, it is quite unique!)·     "Don't just take the money": Why aligning values and morals are important for co-founder and investor relationships to thrive.Following a competitive process, Birl has completed the Baltic Ventures Tech Accelerator 2023 programme and is currently fundraising for its next phase of growth.For more details about the next Baltic Ventures 2024 application process or to seek information about investor opportunities go to www.balticventures.uk and for Birl go to http://www.wearebirl.com/ Please subscribe to our YouTube channel to help build our community.More episodes and information on our offer: www.talkontowalkon.comIG @talkontowalkonFB @Talkontowalkon
