Customer Reviews
Solid Valuable Information!
It was a pleasure to hear from Sarah, someone who has earned a solid reputation and from whom we can learn! It was a double pleasure to hear first hand from Melanie, another woman who can teach us all.
Thank you, and looking forward to hearing more!
Excellent!
This was an excellent podcast. The content was inspiring, entertaining and informative. The conversation/interview was obviously well thought out in advance but was never stuffy or rehearsed. Both women were down to Earth and relatable. Loved it! Can’t wait for more of these!
