Itâs so good to hear from Greta Johnsen again! Her episode on the 87% Club resonated so strongly, I could listen to an entire series on that topic alone. But for now, it was a great reminder about how well Greta understands her audience.
So glad to have Greta back in my podcast feed. If you missed Nerdette (of course you did) come get your smart, delightful conversations at Happy to Be Here- positive and never Pollyanna đ
So excited to hear Greta Johnsenâs voice back in my feed! The first episode of the reimagined podcast (yay to getting the rights to your former show!) was an absolute delight and now Iâm hungry! Be prepared to learn, read, eat and revel in all that is delightful and thought provoking!
So happy that Greta is back!!
