Love, love, LOVE this podcast

I’ve been following Charlie and The Creatives’ Coffee Club for awhile. Charlie has given many of us creatives a way to feel seen and heard when it comes to our journeys. This “random girl on the internet” is inspiring, helpful and passionate. Thank you! My favorite part on this podcast is the recap and thoughts at the end.
