EP11: Lessons of a Lifetime and How to Live Fully in the Present
from the cutting room floor:
My grandma Vee (Valeria) just turned 95 and I can’t believe it’s taken so long for me to have this conversation. I asked my mom to join me at my grandma’s house because my grandma always has so much wisdom. We sat in her sunroom where we’ve had family holiday dinners for years.
Podcast show notes:
