Lovely yayborhood, I hope you\u2019re surviving the final weeks of Winter - I can\u2019t believe how fast the year is going, but I\u2019m so excited we\u2019re inching closer to Spring! Thank you for all the lovely feedback on the past few weeks of episodes and the anonymous Q&A \u2013 I\u2019m so glad last week\u2019s fertility and IVF episode helped some of you, wasn\u2019t Erin just an amazing woman?\n\nThe adoption episode is coming to you next week, but speaking of incredible women, I\u2019ve squeezed another amazing story in between this week. I heard about today\u2019s guest through her brother who happens to be our editor here at Seize the Yay \u2013 HUGE shout out to Sam Blacker at the Podcast Butler if anyone needs anything audio related \u2013 he is literally a LIFE SAVER and one of my favourite people, so it's no surprise that his sister Aimee is just as much of a legend.\n\xa0\nAimee Blacker started out as a paediatric occupational therapist even after not actually knowing what occupational therapy was until she finished high school. She\u2019s one of those amazing examples of not really knowing where you want to end up meaning you\u2019re open-minded enough to stumble upon where you were supposed to end up all along. She is the Co-founder and Director of Surfing the Spectrum, a not-for-profit Surf Therapy initiative working to positively impact the lives of families, and their children with Autism. In anticipation of their next fundraiser this Saturday 20th August, I just had to scream from the rooftops about the transformative work she and her team are doing so I hope you are as inspired and moved as I am.\n\nRaffle Tickets:\xa0https://surfingthespectrum.rallyup.com/surfnturfraffle\xa0\n\nDonate/buy event tickets:\xa0https://surf-n-turf.raisely.com/\xa0\n\nThe website:\xa0www.surfingthespectrum.org\xa0\n\n+ Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah\n+ Join our Facebook community here\n+ Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!\n\nWATCH THIRTEEN LIVES ON PRIME VIDEO
