Viv and Camille Johnson

Like I said at the start of my interview with Camille, she’s a real trouper for coming on Dream Corner when she had just regained her voice! Can’t say thanks enough! As we got into the interview, I further warmed to Camille – what a gutsie, smart lady she is! I was sad our interview came to an end, and instantly invited back on – she was one fab guest! Listen to her talk about the book that made that decision for her – inspiring! Interview with Camille Johnson

What guests say

I had such a great time on Dream Corner. Even though I’d never met Viv before, she instantly made me feel at home. Her organisation and explanations of how everything would work made our live radio session a breeze. Added to that, Viv is a natural interviewer and manages to get the best out of her guests without them knowing that she’s doing it. Thanks Viv. I hope to be back at Dream Corner soon -Tamsin Fox-Davies, Enthuse Marketing

I knew I would enjoy being a guest on Viv’s show because she’s a great conversationalist and I really enjoy talking with her!

Thanks to Viv for being such a great host and I hope future guests have as good a time as I did - Natalie Lawrence, Natalie Lawrence Photography

I absolutely loved being on your show! Thank you for inviting me, it was great just being there! Was a little nervous at first, but you put me right at ease and it was like having a chat with a good friend.

Being on Dream Corner with Viv was a lovely experience. It felt like catching up with an old friend. I really enjoyed learning more about her vision to inspire women and sharing conversation about subjects that were interesting, relevant and pertinent. It’s an intelligent show for conscious women. I look forward to our next interview. - Felicity Lerouge, Phenomenal Women Events

I found my guest appearance on Dream Corner to be truly inspirational. I was greeted in a friendly and professional manner, everything worked smoothly and Viv was very informed on her guests and engaged with us in a way that made the conversation feel relaxed and fun. Her passion is contagious. Also, prior to the interview, there were really clear instructions and briefs about the discussion topics. I’d love to work with Viv again in the future. - Minna Salami, MsAfropolitan

I had such a great time on Viv’s show. Not only was she a lot of fun, but she instantly made me feel welcome and relaxed. The interview went extremely well, as she really grasped the essence of my work. This meant we were able to explain some of the more interesting and subtle points. This was hugely different from a lot of shows I have done – quite unique! I have listened back to the recording since, and there was so much great content in it I now use it to give people an overview of Finding Their Money Mojo. Viv is a natural interviewer, and I can’t wait to work with her again! Thanks Viv. x - Laura Leigh Clarke, Laura Leigh Clarke.com

It was a real pleasure to come on Dream Corner and explain my vision for the The Good Fork and a (hopefully) fabulous foodie future! Viv’s a charming host and such fun to chat to. Thanks so much for the opportunity! - Virginia Webb, The Good Fork

Viv is an extremely affable host who immediately puts you at your ease. She asks pertinent questions that are enjoyable to answer but also provide interesting listening for her audience. I think she uses the medium of radio to its best advantage. I thoroughly enjoyed being a guest on her show - Lois Ireson, MSB Executive

I was pretty nervous about being on the radio let alone being interview for an hour! But I had nothing to be worried about – Viv made me feel really comfortable. That combined with being asked about a subject I’m passionate about meant the time flew by – it felt like we were on air for only a few minutes! It was a lot of fun, thanks to Viv’s warm professionalism and friendly nature. - Alicia Cowan

You were definitely born to do this Viv! You make your guests feel valued and special – something that’s important to all women and you have a great knack for it. I really enjoyed our “radio chat”. The time went soooo quickly because you made it easy. Thank you. I love the strap line for Dream Corner – Inspiring women of all ages and it’s a great thing to be doing just that. – For your guests as well as your listeners. If I can contribute with a more focussed piece for your listeners, it’d be a joy to do so. Hugs & blessings - Fi Ivin, Women on a Wobble

I am not quite sure where last week went! However I do want to say a huge thank you for your enthusiasm and comments you made post our interview last week. You have a fantastic ability to put people at ease and there is a warmth that emanates from you that is so wonderfully infectious. There was one point during the interview that I asked about your passion for Dream Corner, and there was not one ounce of hesitation in your voice about your commitment to it, and trust me that really does shine through . It’s a shame you cant interview yourself, because you are an inspiration to others! Thank you for the opportunity - Kimberly Rothman, idlovetodothat

I just wanted to say a huge Thank You for such an enjoyable time with you today. Your professionalism and enthusiasm really shone through and helped to put me at ease so that I could talk in a relaxed manner – I truly enjoyed it. - Gayle Edwards, Breakthru' Diva

I was very fortunate to be invited by the lovely Viv Oyolu to be a guest on her radio show Dream Corner. As a business owner, who works within Visual Merchandising, I was pleasantly surprised at how much research she had done into my industry prior to my interview which made me feel right at ease. Her interview and conversation style is a perfect blend of inquisition and a friendly chat; and one that enabled me to speak freely. I look forward to being a guest again in the future - Deborah Millington, RedBorder

I was really pleased to have been invited by Viv to be part of the Dream Corner series. Talking about ourselves doesn’t always come easy however with Viv’s super-calm style this was a conversation between friends which just happened to have a microphone in between us. Viv put time into planning the questions, making sure I was comfortable and keeping contact on the day to ensure we made the best use of time available. This was a really enjoyable experience – and helped me to articulate parts of my career journey which I’d never thought to put into words before. It was a pleasure speaking with Viv and I’d thoroughly recommend anyone else who may like to share their experiences. - Julia Fuller, Female leader in the City

"We thoroughly enjoyed our interview with Viv at Dream Corner. You feel you know her even though you’ve only just met. She is natural, friendly and welcoming, whilst still being knowledgeable and informed. We both got a lot out of discussing our business with Viv. She’s a great sounding board, asks searching questions and makes her interviewees feel valued. What a great way to spend a morning. Viv – may you go from strength to strength and we look forward to listening in to future interviews – and seeing you again!" - Helen Shapestone and Caryn Skinner, Directors Sharpstone Skinner
