Meet Robyn, this month's speaker and a perfect fit for our global theme of Nomad:
My childhood was spent at festivals and camping, and after not doing well at school and being fully distracted at college I left education to work on festival stalls.
Then after trying my best in my early twenties to settle down and get a great CV, I drove away to Scotland and spent the following eight years living in tents, caravans, tents and amongst wagons living nomadically.
I came back to Derbyshire three years ago to reconnect with my roots, and in that time have begun a music career which is heavily based on my experience of the road, and my constant longing for it.
Our theme for August is NOMAD. It was chosen by our Ulaanbaatar chapter in Mongolia and illustrated by Oyuna Bold.
Some people feel compelled to travel from place to place. To live outside the confines and constraints of a permanent address. Others have no choice but to leave home in search of a better life. A nomad embraces discomfort, welcomes the unknown, and sees every detour as a new adventure.
Have you heard the call of the open road? Ever dream of being a digital nomad working from exotic locales? Crossing borders and time zones to discover fresh inspiration and share-worthy views. But following your nomadic spirit doesn’t require collecting stamps in your passport.
The act of creating is its own journey. So, meander through your ideas. Roam between different styles. The most important thing is to take the first step. It doesn’t matter where it leads, because the joy is suddenly finding yourself somewhere unexpected.
Whether you’re racking up frequent flyer miles or navigating a change in your creative career, remember that motion fuels imagination. Wander. Wonder. Repeat.
We're so pleased to have the fascinating David Turner as this month's speaker.
David is Derby born and bred and is passionate about his home city and the surrounding county. As part of Derby Uncovered CIC he runs the Derby Uncovered Heritage Centre and Derbyshire’s Own in Derby Market Hall. He also hosts various history themed walks, talks and events in the city.
Another FriYAH's is just around the corner! See you on Friday 18th July at Derby Market Hall with the always fascinating David Turner from Derby Uncovered as this month's speaker Our theme for July is MENTOR. It was chosen by our Glasgow chapter in Scotland, illustrated by Molly Hankinson, and is presented by Adobe. No one is born with all the knowledge and skills they’ll need to thrive in life. That’s why kids go to school. But we shouldn’t stop learning once we graduate. We need to find new teachers. A mentor doesn’t have to be an expert or the top of their field. Just someone who’s been there and done that before. Someone to show you the way and offer a bit of advice and encouragement. Ideally, they’re willing to make introductions and mention your name when you’re not in the room. Being a mentor is considered a way of giving back. But mentors get just as much out of the relationship, if not more. Beyond the satisfaction of helping, mentors also learn from their mentees. From a fresh way of looking at established practices to tackling new problems with a beginner’s mind. So, ask for help. We all could use a guide as we climb. Find your mentors and be a mentor in return. Your plans for growth are more likely to succeed if they include lifting others up as you rise.
Our theme for June is PUNK. It was chosen by our Bologna chapter in Italy and illustrated by Cristina Portolano.
