Apparently one birthday isn't enough for Jan, so this week on 3 Wise Ducks we're celebrating Jan's birthday month and having plenty of laughs about it along the way.

Joy also shares a recent moment that taught her a lesson about accepting a compliment. What should have been a simple "thank you" didn't quite go to plan, leading to a hilarious conversation about why we can be so awkward when someone says something nice about us, and what perhaps not to do next time.

It's one of those 3 Wise Ducks conversations that starts in one place and ends up somewhere completely unexpected. Birthdays, compliments, a little life lesson and plenty of laughs along the way.

And we have something exciting coming up. We're having a 3 Wise Ducks Luncheon on 14 November 2026 and we'd love some of our listeners to join us. Follow us on our socials and register your expression of interest if you'd like to come along. We'll be sharing more details soon.
