Dr Shaherah Jordan is an entrepreneur, academic and communications professional carving a name for herself in sustainability. She also happens to be a former athlete so you know I am not challenging her to a plank-off any time soon. We talk being about being a multi-hypenate, social media icks and getting in our own way.
You can find Shaherah Jordan on Instagram and TikTok: @shaherahjordan.
And this episode is the last in season 1 of PROcrastinate! I hope professional procrastinators everywhere have found this to be of service, and if you've liked it, why not tell a friend? New episodes will be coming towards the end of the year.

What an episode we have for you today, the phenomenal Margaret Caborn Smith gives has some absolutely golden advice on productivity for creative people. I also learned about a child who turned up to school who turned up dressed up as a Roman, complete with a chariot. That parent is a procrastination master.

This episode is a treat. Comedian and actor Thanyia Moore tells me about her journey towards a better work/life balance and making better decisions for herself, every day. She proper shamed my morning routine too (which basically involves coffee and shouting at Radio 4). It's not good enough and I will fix up!

Today I am PROcrastinating with Nels Abbey. He's a writer and commentator. Buy his books THE HIP HOP MBA and THINK LIKE A WHITE MAN - both out now! What a great chat, we confirm once and for all that creativity grows from procrastination, Lagos Airport IS the motherland and all writer retreats should be in strip clubs.

Musician, broadcaster and activist Linton Stephens talks to Athena Kugblenu about being a master procrastinator AND elite musician at the same time. After listening to this, you will be reassured that procrastination is a form of active resistance against the oppressive status quo. This is exactly the kind of endorsement we all need.
