This much I know: Alison Curtis

I’m at my most comfortable on air — you have to be confident and doing live radio certainly brings you into the moment.

The only time I was nervous was when I came back from maternity leave. Your world shrinks when you’ve been with a baby the whole time.

I gave birth to my daughter Joan in 2011 and have fallen in love with being a parent and am better at it than I thought I would be. I was 36 and think I surprised a lot of people when I announced that I was pregnant. I used to race through life before and needed to be busy all the time, but now I appreciate a slower pace. Becoming a parent has definitely made me more patient and hopefully more understanding.
