Sometimes our biggest mistakes become our greatest teachers. For singer and performer Loomis, a nervous National Anthem performance that went viral became the catalyst for a conversation about resilience, vulnerability, and refusing to let one moment define your entire story. In this deeply personal episode, Loomis shares her journey from an abusive relationship to finding the courage to pursue her dreams in music. "When I left that really abusive relationship, I said, what I'm gonna do? What I love to do. I love to sing," she tells JoJo, describing how reconnecting with her passion became her path to healing. The conversation takes an emotional turn as Loomis recounts the morning of her viral performance - how she looked for signs from her recently deceased mother and grandmother, found butterflies circling her, and still felt terrified to perform. When technical difficulties disrupted her performance, leading to the viral moment, Loomis reveals how it actually opened unexpected doors and became part of her larger story of resilience. Key topics covered: • Escaping an abusive relationship and reclaiming her voice through music • Why she refuses to be a "content creator" and prefers authentic connection over social media fame • Her philosophy on overcoming fear: "All you got to do is two minutes... imagine how you're going to feel doing something you're so scared to do"…

Gaining InSight 1:18:33

vor 44 weeks1:18:33

1:18:33

Meet Dr Anna Horleston from Bristol University. NASA’s InSight lander was active on Mars from November 2018 to December 2022 – a total of 1446 sols (Martian days). InSight carried a suite of geophysical instruments designed to help us understand the interior structure of the red planet. The primary instrument was a seismometer – the first seismometer to be deployed to the surface of Mars – and my job was to analyse the seismic data, to find Marsquakes (like earthquakes but on Mars), and to figure out what was causing them. I’ll take you through the highs and lows of working on an active NASA mission, the real meaning of “remote working”, and show you some of the amazing results from the mission.…
