Finally
A podcast I may relate to and feel celebratory if such strong and capable women.
I was looking for podcast and nothing stuck; finally, I feel represented.
Can’t wait for more episodes!
Julia! Wow! This podcast has to be hands down my absolute favorite podcast to listen to while I am driving to and from work. Women of all ages can take so much from these interviews. I have spent my time learning so much about women and life listening to you and these women. I feel like I have laughed with you and cried with you while listening to these personal stories. I hope there will be more episodes in the future. You’ve really got something special here. 🙏🏻💕
