Episode 20: Jessie Grimes "There's no ceiling in what you can do"

Who would’ve thought that one could do some productive practice during lockdown?

Jessie Grimes is my guest for episode 20- she’s a musician who plays the clarinet, works with vulnerable and special needs people and is a presenter.  Listen to her chat about how life doesn’t always go the way you planned, making tough career choices, how she maintains her mental health throughout challenging projects, and what she thinks is “the most lesbian thing in the world”.

Music college didn’t prepare a whole lot of musicians for working in supermarkets during this difficult time – listen out for some topical anecdotes. Got something to share? Email me: asitcomespodcast@gmail.com

Huge thanks to James Bryant for helping me with the sound this episode.
