If your siblings won’t take your calls and you can’t afford a therapist, where are you supposed to turn for wise solicited advice? Lawrence Greenwood AKA Whitley is a songwriter and performer of finely crafted folk tunes but he also happens to be a philosopher, love doctor, spirit guide and cat whisperer – and he’s here to help.
To coincide with the release of his new album Even The Stars Are A Mess, Whitley is kicking off a national tour in Brisbane next Friday, but first he’s lending the gift of wisdom to Pedestrian readers in need of advice. If you could use the assistance of an Agony Aunt, submit a question via Twitter or in the comment section with the hashtag #AskWhitley and he will choose the questions from those most in need and respond in a non-professional-quality video message on Friday 12 July. These are the categories of Whitley’s problem-solving expertise:
1. Professional Conduct, Careers & The Workplace – Ever asked yourself questions like should I use the office scanner to document naked body parts? or when lying on my resume, how much is too much? Whitley will help you solve those niggling questions about the amorphous mores of the workplace.
2. Love & Relationships – Got a crush on your cousin? Need a creative concept for proposing marriage? Want help overcoming the slump of a broken heart? Consider Whitley your Love Doctor.
3. Awkward Social Situations – If you need suggestions for disguising another pesky NRB, Whitley’s here to help.
Bring forth your questions.
