Amelia Abraham: Time Management & Not Spreading Yourself Too Thin

On this week’s episode of Priorities, I’m in conversation with
author and journalist Amelia Abraham, one of the UK’s leading
voices in LGBTQ+ culture and politics. Amelia’s 2019 book, ‘Queer
Intentions: A (Personal) Journey Through LGBTQ+ Culture’, is a
moving, enlightening and thought-provoking exploration of queer
culture across the world.


Some of the topics we cover include:


Contributing queer stories to the world

The addictive nature of work

Developing a relationship with activism

How not to spread yourself too thin



Will you agree with Amelia’s priorities? Have a listen and find
out.


Priorities explores the things in life that really matter. Join
Lily Silverton as she invites inspirational guests to discuss
their priorities, and how these help them successfully navigate
this demanding modern world.


Thinking about your own priorities? This podcast will help you
move closer to the life you truly want to live.
