Manage episode 440710221 series 2898074
Have you got dreams of turning your years of experience, knowledge and wisdom into a new career as a speaker?
Well that’s exactly what Dr Rhona Morrison did.
She is a retired Forensic Psychiatrist, who worked in the NHS for 32 years, and the author of ‘I don’t talk to dead bodies’.
Her book takes you beyond the sensationalist headlines to show you just what happens in a world where mental illness occasionally makes good people do bad things. Rhona shares her often funny, at times downright bizarre, but consistently thought provoking experiences of delving into the minds of the real offenders she worked with as a leading forensic psychiatrist.
Born and bred in Scotland, into a working-class family, she has a grounded approach to life, with a generous helping of humour.
In this show you’ll find out about her writing journey and how transitioned from psychiatrist, to author, to cruise-ship speaker.
What you’ll discover:
- How Rhona became a forensic psychiatrist and what they do.
- The gift given by her disabled sister that enabled Rhona to be more effective in her job and inspired the book.
- Some of the stories from Rhona’s career in forensic psychiatry.
- The difference between dot-to-dot psychiatry and the art of psychiatry.
- How Rhona has brought light to a dark subject in her book and talks.
- What made Rhona want to get into cruise line speaking and how she did it.
- How speaking on cruise ships works from the speaker's perspective.
- How Rhona approached creating and testing the five talks she needed for her first cruise booking.
- The message Rhona wants her audiences to take home.
All things Rhona (including her book - I Don't Talk to Dead Bodies):
