<p>Not really a Share Shed today…</p><br><p>But there was a story from this week’s podcast that absolutely refused to be squeezed into a normal segment. It needed its own space. Its own moment. Its own… spotlight.</p><br><p>We had the incredible Shanna Whan on <em>Sober Awkward</em> this week, founder of Sober in the Country and creator of the brilliant <em>#OK2SAYNO</em> campaign… and somewhere in the middle of talking about life in rural Australia, sobriety, and all things outback… she casually dropped this story.</p><br><p>It involves an invitation to the Queen’s funeral.</p><br><p>Yes. THAT.</p><br><p>I’m not going to say anything else, because honestly, you just need to hear it.</p><br><p>All I will say is… Shanna and I have more in common than I could have ever imagined.</p><br><p>And it involves hats.</p><br><p>What a story.
