petitelynne ,

@livewithirenia dives in a little deeper into the story behind each person interviewed.

Love @livewithirenia; she has a way to have an interview flow and naturally dives in deeper into the story behind the story and gets the tidbits, and the listener may get tips and some insight to enlighten them on their own journey.

Continue with the great work!

Season 2 Episode 7: Adela Mehic-Dzanic

This was a great episode! It was so interesting to learn about Adela’s story! Having lived in several countries, I could really appreciate her starting from scratch in a new country and how she never gave up but continued with her pathway. I am super appreciative that she is planning to inspire 1000 women in 2020! That is really awesome! Thank you for the great conversation!
