Today's unscripted conversation is with the exhilarating award-winning Milliner, Crystal Birch, an indisputable talent, a colourful character both inside and out. Crystal talks to me bout her passions, pitfalls, family life, tough lessons, and the secret of carving your own niche in a world that may appear saturated.
