Perceptions of our Future: Recent Episodes
Ellen Whysall
Hello and welcome to Perceptions of our Future. The weekly interview-based podcast contemplating the complex question… what is your perception of your future? Each week I will be joined by a different guest who is allowing us to delve into their life story whilst we discuss what their perception of their future is.
In episode 9 I am joined by my hilarious friend Eloise. We have a funny (and maybe a tad boozy) chat about her perception of her future.
She is currently studying Psychology and Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh however has a different perception of her future.
As mentioned in the episode, Eloise ran 50 miles for Dementia UK, supporting the charity that is very close to her heart. So if you would like to donate to Eloise and to Dementia UK please follow the link below:

This week is my first in-person recorded episode and it is a long one but a proper laugh!
I am joined by my dad, Kevin Whysall as we go on a tour of his life so far, starting with his struggles at school to raving and misbehaving to now owning a successful luxury home entertainment company.
He sheds light on the idea that there isn't one linear path to success and with perseverance and a positive attitude you can reach your goals. However, he would like to note, looking back at his life he doesnt condone turning your back on education, but if that is the way it is going make sure to find a solid vocational path in order to continue your studies successfully.
I hope you enjoy it!
