Hosted by Amy Iverson

Welcome to Paul's Positive Podcast, where each episode delves into heartfelt stories that are sure to uplift and inspire. Tune in as our remarkable host, Amy Iverson, brings tales that shine a light on human resilience, community spirit, and the joy of overcoming odds.


 

In a recent exhilarating episode, Amy recounts the remarkable story of golfer MacIntyre's thrilling victory at the Scottish Open. Playing close to home, MacIntyre turned a previous defeat into a jaw-dropping showcase of determination by finishing the last five holes at 4-under-par. His stunning 41-foot birdie at the 14th and an incredible eagle on the 16th, facilitated by a crucial ruling, tied him with the leader. The drama peaked at the 72nd hole, where his crucial 22-feet birdie putt clinched his victory. This tale not only celebrates MacIntyre's athletic prowess but also resonates deeply with themes of resilience and the powerful emotions of sports, further enriched by the presence of his father as his caddy.


 

Continuing with themes of hope and transformation, Amy shines a spotlight on another uplifting segment about the Uniting Church in Orange. A heritage-listed building is being repurposed into a "boarding school-style" sanctuary for the homeless, featuring seven bedrooms. Born from a simple caravan initiative, this project arose due to an urgent need recognized by the church after overwhelming interactions during their meal services. This story is a testament to community-driven change, providing not just shelter but a blueprint for sustainable social housing and support services, aimed at empowering residents to thrive amidst societal challenges.


 

Join Amy for these fascinating tales tailored just for you, Paul, as they showcase the incredible spirit of individuals and communities facing challenges with courage and creativity. It's more than just a podcast; it's a journey into the heart of what makes us all strive for better.
