This week's guest is Claire Firth, a zoo keeper and graphic designer.
Claire's journey to becoming a zoo keeper began in earnest around her 40th birthday. But truthfully, it began in her childhood with a love of animals. In this week's episode, we talk to Claire about what her job is like, what made her decide to take the leap and return to school, and what it's like being a "mature" student in a program with mostly 19-20 year-olds. We hope you'll be just as inspired as we were with how Claire changed her life to find what makes her happy.
This episode's songs:
Talk to the Animals from Dr. Dolittle, performed by Rex Harrison
Katy Perry's Roar
Theme to Animal Magic
This week's episode is hosted by Mary Bourne and Karen Barrett, and produced by Will Bourne.
