  • Brilliant interview skills

    Love love love listening to this podcast as I walk each morning. I’ve been listening to these interviews for quite some time and have almost made my way through all. Surprisingly, the ones I think won’t interest me, always do. Jess has such great interview skills that I’m constantly in awe of how she interacts with each of her guests with kindness, compassion, grace, interest and humility. She is a master of her craft. Keep it up Jess!

    Not many people have a personality like Jessica. She’s so refreshing to listen to and I love all the guests she has..especially Guy Sebastian. Love how she calls her husband Petey and she spills the beans on how it is at home .. clean washing on the floor in piles waiting to be folded ..she’s normal ! She’s lots of fun. Thank you Jessica 😊
