  • Another Perfect Interview

    I have just finished the interview and discussion with Lisa about her new book. Sarrah, really does interview her guests with such respect, still touches on the personal aspects we probably also would to know about while also giving the reason the guest is there, their feature in Stella, “the plug” but without it being oversold. This podcast has become a must listen in my weekly repertoire. Highly recommended
