Julie Goodwin to depart Star 104.5 breakfast show

In 2020, the Rabbit and Julie Goodwin breakfast show will be no more, with Goodwin departing to focus on other projects and rebalancing her life.

Goodwin and Dave ‘Rabbit’ Rabbetts have worked together for four years, and she said she was making the decision with sadness.

Goodwin joined ‘Rabbit’ on air in January 2016 

“It’s with real sadness that I’ve made the difficult decision to step away from my breakfast role, but I’ve had to weigh up my family, my cooking school and life balance priorities, and hope I’m doing the right thing,” she said. “My time at Star 104.5 has been a pleasure and a privilege, and I’m proud to have worked with such a great team. I’m indebted to Rabbit, my partner and mentor, for teaching me everything about radio, and for the wonderful laughs and fantastic times. I’m also awed by our listeners for sharing their stories, and for their kindness, generosity and humour.”
