Such an inspiring presenter

Inspiring and empowering to listen too. Being interviewed by Kerryn was like getting an ego boost shot to the arm, wrapped up with a squeezy hug while laughing uncontrollable the whole time.

Kerryn spreads joy and empowerment everywhere she goes and listening to her guests is always inspiring. 🫶
