Louise Barnard

Catch Louise on Do Radio: Where to Next with Cat Preston 12-18th January 2026.

Host Cat Preston turns the microphone around to interview Louise Barnard, the producer behind Where to Next?, about the origins of the show and the deeper story behind its creation.

Louise came to DO Radio through a moment of synchronicity, an alignment too resonant to ignore. A lifelong pattern-seeker, she recognised it as a thread worth following.

At her core, Louise is drawn to what sits beneath the surface: the quiet connections between people, ideas, and possibility. Whether producing a radio show, building a startup, or writing, her work centres on helping others see the bigger picture and feel empowered to play their part in shaping it.

She believes deeply in the transformative power of story. With DO Radio, she is exploring how radio can serve as a space for communal curiosity and a launchpad for doing things differently.

In this conversation, Louise shares the story behind Where to Next?, its soulful beginnings with Dan Kieran, and how the show continues to evolve as a space for honest conversation, spiritual inquiry, and second-act exploration. For her, DO Radio is more than a station - it’s a campfire. A place to connect, reflect, and remember that we’re not alone.
