  • Like coffee with a friend

    I was a guest on Jacqui’s podcast. She made me feel relaxed and like I was curled up on her couch with a cup of coffee, chatting away with a new friend. She is equally warm and inviting throughout her episodes and is gifted at finding unique stories in everyday lives.
