It is great to hear the journey of discovery that so many creatives find later in life. Claire has a real skill for drawing out those who might otherwise avoid sharing their story.

United Kingdom4 years ago - Great interviews
Really lovely to get an interviewer that gently coaxes the guest to tell their story without seemingly much effort. Claire brings out the best in people, probably partly because she chooses really interesting guests! Started with the Eve Horne interview (Sept “21) which I can heartily recommend. Get inspired to be creative!
