Drummer Meg Learmonth, Direct selling and women, Anorexia in lockdown, The Other One

While the world has gone into lockdown and economies have crashed, one type of business has been seeing double-digit growth – direct selling. Independent consultants for big names such as Body Shop at Home, Forever Living, Avon, Usborne Books at Home and Arbonne have been reporting huge increases in sales and recruitment in response to regular shops closing their doors. But while proponents of ‘multi-level marketing’ or ‘direct to consumer’ selling say it provides an opportunity for women to earn money on their own terms, critics say that the business model sits precariously close to being a pyramid scheme. So what do women need to know? Jenni talks to Susannah Schofield, the DG of the Direct Selling Association; Hannah Martin of the Talented Ladies Club; and Clare from Hertfordshire, who talks about her experience of working in the industry. Meg Learmonth was just 18 when she was appointed drummer for the Stormzy collaborator Mura Masa. She describes how drumming was “love at first hit”, the tale behind her broken foot, touring before lockdown and her part in a 21 day drumming marathon to raise money for the NHS. Meg's 12 hour drumming shift is being streamed this Thursday, 4th June. What is it like coping with lockdown while living with an eating disorder? For today’s Woman’s Hour Corona Diaries, listener Jennie talks about her experience – including how being forced to stay at home has led to her making positive steps towards recovery. The Other One is new comedy on BBC1. It’s all about a girl called Catherine Walcott. And another girl called Catherine Walcott. Half-sisters who had no idea the other existed until their father died. Jenni talks to its creator Holly Walsh and one of the stars taking on the role of Catherine - Ellie White. Presented by Jenni Murray Produced by Jane Thurlow Interviewed guest: Susannah Schofield Interviewed guest: Hannah Martin Interviewed guest: Meg Learmonth Interviewed guest: Holly Walsh Interviewed guest: Ellie White

I was born in New Jersey, but moved to Massachusetts when I was eight. I came down to Charleston for college so mathematically I’m still a Yankee for four more years. After that I will have lived here longer than I have above the Mason-Dixon line. Surprisingly, my husband was born and raised in Massachusetts. We grew up ten minutes away from each other. We never met until we were down here. I began working at Berkeley High as a PE teacher, volleyball and basketball coach after college. Charlie is an English teacher. We met on my third day at the school and have been side by side since. With our northern blood and approach to life, I attempted a series called Tales of a Transplant, but nobody down here seemed to care for them. Such is life. I continue to write each day regardless of my schedule, or which hat I must throw on. I truly believe my calling from God is to be a writer. I have been asked by a college to speak at one of their chapel services in the 2019-2020 school year. Although I have never been much for public speaking, I feel honored and at peace. I know it is what I am meant to do. As for hobbies, I am quite active. I need to keep in shape as a personal trainer, but I desire to stay in shape for my love of fitness and the results. I read as often as time, and little ones, allow. I’ll read anything from government agents fighting the mysterious international villains to growing my business, to spiritual growth, to short stories, and I love young adult reads. I am a crafty person as well. I used to own a shop in Downtown Summerville called Downtown Crossing. Everything was handmade by myself, my mother, or my sister-in-law. Though the shop is closed, I still love making candles, jewelry, and even knitting. I have shocked quite a few people when I bust out the knitting needles to make a dish cloth. I believe in busy hands. I even work as an Usborne Books and More consultant. I am quite active in church life. I won’t go into details, but I do work the sound booth for our Sunday morning service. I enjoy being a part of the women’s Bible study group. My husband teaches the K-2nd class on Sunday mornings. We lead Financial Peace University classes. And most importantly we try our best to be godly leaders for all around us. My life is an open book, no pun intended. I’m busy constantly, but enjoying the moments that present themselves. jjsweeney.weebly.com FB: Jewel Sweeney Author jsweeneyauthor@gmail.com 843.697.1527 this episode is sponsored by www.LiveOakRealEstate.net
