This week's guest is Nicki Bannerman, who grew into her second career in radio broadcast journalism from the glitzy globe-trotting world of marketing & PR in music, film & TV. With a life long passion for radio, she rewrote the story of her life into one in which she gets to use the power of audio to create a platform for positively impacting the lives of others.
Host & artist Lou Hamilton and Nicki discuss her passion for radio and podcasts and how her purpose has evolved to interviewing people whose stories help inspire us in our health and well-being. Of course this comes from her own experience of life-threatening health issues.
In this way this Woman of Courage brings us her Story from the Edge.
