The story of Carol Decker's life has inspired people around the world to choose love and gratitude despite their challenges. In this episode, Carol tells us what it was like to go to the hospital with what she thought was the flu and wake up to an irreversibly different world and body. Carol's website: https://www.caroljdecker.com/  

A theme for both this podcast and our lives is to live with urgency; to not be held back by whatever circumstances we find ourselves in. Nobody brings that to life more clearly than our guest this week, Carol Decker. During Carol’s second pregnancy, she was affected by sepsis, a blood infection. She had her baby seven weeks early as a result, and also lost both of her hands, most of her left leg, her eyesight, and she required skin grafts. Carol talks about how no matter what disability we face in each of our lives, we have to realize that we are still valued and needed. She herself came to realize this the first time she fed her young daughter; who didn’t understand anything about her mom’s disabilities, but still needed her mom.   She was also reminded of her own value when her therapist told her that today they would make cookies with her daughters. Carol didn’t think she could do that because of her injuries, but that experience was a precious bonding time between her and her daughters.   We want to thank Carol for joining us. You can find out more about Carol at https://www.caroljdecker.com/ and check out her book, Unshattered, here.

In this episode Gearoid travels to Henley on Thames to pay a visit T’pau singer and 80s rock queen Carol Decker. We take a nostalgic look back at her glory days and chat about everything from fridges to “The Killing”. In the 80s Carol Decker and her former partner Ronnie Rogers shared a damp flat in which they wrote songs chasing their dream of superstardom which remained elusive for six years. They endured the heartache of publishing deals falling through but always believed in their songs. When success came it was worth the wait and their band T’Pau (named after a Star Trek character became huge all over the world) with hits like “Heart and Soul”, “China in your Hand” and “Valentine”.  When it all ended Carol mourned her fame for a long time until she met a new manager, a new man and embraced her past.  She is now the mother of two teenagers and has forged a solo career. She reunited with Ronnie for a 25th anniversary T’pau tour and they made another critically acclaimed T’pau album.  Carol tours regularly and has released her autobiography “Heart & Soul”.   If you enjoy this episode please share it and leave a review on iTunes and while you are there why not treat yourself to some T’Pau!  Follow Carol: @caroldecker Follow Gearoid: @gearoidfarrelly http://www.tpau.co.uk/shop http://www.universalmusic.ch/music/artist/t-pau/release/0602557203660

T'Pau - The Whole Story... T’Pau’s Carol Decker joins SNS Online in part one (of two) of an extended interview, available here as a free download. Having recently returned to the pop world with a brand new, critically acclaimed album, Pleasure & Pain, complete with UK tour, part one covers T’Pau’s early rise to fame, their quadruple platinum debut album, Bridge of Spies - and beyond - plus the lifestyle that they all enjoyed during that creative musical explosion that was the 1980s. But why did it all stop when it did, and how different has motherhood affected Carol in recent years, as T’Pau once more steps into the limelight..? In a very honest (and funny!) interview, Carol and Nick put the world to rights in a secret location in Henley-on-Thames (a pub), and not only cover T’Pau’s initial glory days, but discuss the wonderful pop culture of the 1980’s onwards (wearing black arm-bands for the demise of Top of the Pops...). Illustrated with T’Pau’s hits and archive material. A show to be enjoyed if you're a T'Pau/Carol Decker fan, or if you just want to immerse yourselves in that heady era of 80's nostalgia...
