Happiness Injection with Shonette Bason

Listening is such an easy skill, is it though? How much of it do we have in our life? What can we gain from both sides and how will it fit our overall happiness.

I now have a writing programme designed to develop early writing from age 2 through into Year 1. Using Neurological and Physiological principles, the programme is a great way to improve early mark making and is a recognised solution for developing writing in Early Years. Early Years is the foundation of learning and using our programme will help fill the gap in learning that has been created by the pandemic.

Loss hurts us all, is there anything positive to take from it. I lost my friend Miriam last year and share some of my reflections of how wonderful and inspiring a person she was.

New Year is the time when people plan changes. New Year New Me! What does that actually mean for people though? How can we implement changes in our lives to improve them and make it meaningful and lasting? Shonette has some ideas, listen in for more

It's all about confidence!  One of the biggest lessons Shonette learned while at the factory was learning how to stand up for herself. Shonette and Cammy talk about the times they've been standing up for themselves and for others.

Shonette is 48 and Cammy is 24 and sometimes this can lead to a bit of a communication issue. So today the pair are looking at slang and the way words can mean very different things to different generations. In particular the pair have a giggle about some slang words from the 80s - when Shonette was a teenager! How many words do you remember?

As Christmas approaches Shonette and Cammy reflect on how this crazy covid Christmas might actually make future Christmases better Shonette has planned an outside Christmas for her family this year. Yes, an outside Christmas in the North East of England! Don't worry she's ordered some patio heaters. Cammy's just looking forward to Christmas dinner. Merry Christmas and here's to being kinder to each other and ourselves.

Lemon suckers are well and truly in Shonette's sights today. They are the people that won't try anything new, won't smile, are totally moody all the time and have that “lemon sucker” face on them all the time. Shonette thinks it's possible to get some lemon suckers to cough up their lemons, but not everybody. Because not every lemon sucker wants to cough up that lemon.  So how do you deal with a lemon sucker? You stay happy. Shonette and Cammy have all the tools for you to protect yourself from lemon suckers.

There's two new jobs on the podcast. Shonette is teaching 5 days a week. And Cammy's still in the factory but it's a new role and not nights! And whilst it's not on either of their job descriptions the pair of them are making sure they are spreading happiness (without drugs or alcohol). Cammy gets to talk to people and spreads compliments wherever he goes. Shonette is spreading baking!  And you don't need to get a new job to spread the happiness - Shonette and Cammy have lots of ideas for you to bring the happiness to where you work even if you've been there for years.

Shonette and Cammy are talking little addictions! The things you can't stop yourself from doing  (or in Shonette's case eating!) Shonette is addicted to cake and Cammy is addicted to TK Maxx (but he's facing lockdown cold turkey!)

Shonette is annoyed by the lies we tell children (and adults). And the one that's really got her goat is this one “You can be anything you want to be” Sometimes  you have to recognise that actually there are some things you can't do.  It's not negative to think or say this because sometimes thinking you can achieve something which is simply impossible will actually make you sad and frustrated. So get your ears around this episode as Shonette tells you what you might want to tell yourself (and the kids) instead.

Shonette has been running a happiness superhero coaching course.  It's a self help course to help the self because she is a self help junkie! Weight Loss and fitness was one of the main goals to start off but soon those goals developed and people soon discovered the superhero inside them. One woman is set to publish the book she has written, but has been putting off. Another is getting ready to open a bakery! And guess what!? Shonette has also discovered lots about herself too.

Today's episode is all about lemon suckers. Because they are taking up too much space in our lives. A lemon sucker is a person who takes the joy out of life. They often look as though they are in fact sucking on a lemon sucker. Sometimes, you are the lemon sucker.  And lemon suckers are contagious. But good news, so is happiness!

Don't tell Shonette what to do! You'll be shocked to hear that Shonette has always been very clear on whether she wants to do something or not. So unless you're going to tell her some positives along with the negatives and stopping her from doing what she wants to do to be happy (car park disco anybody?!) then don't even think about it And if you're one of those people who tell others what to do - have a think about how you're saying (no shushing!)

After last week's emotional Coronacoaster Shonette is back with a bit more positivity.At the beginning of lockdown there was lots of talk about all the things you could achieve. Yeah, Shonette's still laughing at some of those ideas too.But one thing she has done is finish her book.Well ok, the first draft but she is over the line.It's not a lockdown creation, in fact it's taken much longer than that to get even this far. And it made Shonette think about how everybody says there's book inside everybody because actually writing a book is hard work.You might have the book inside you but getting it out is a whole different story (ha ha). Sometimes you need somebody to drag you over the line - both metaphorically and physically. Who drags you over the line or are you the dragger?Let Shonette know on Instagram @basonshonette Subscribe to Spread The Happiness TV And visit her website https://www.shonettebasonwood.com/Music used under creative commons license.
