When I was 29 I left a safe and secure career in Pharmacy to do a completely different thing. Storytelling. I learned how to tell people’s stories to the world. In media I met and worked with some of the most respected broadcasters, CEO’s and newsmakers. In 2020 I started my own show. The vision grew and became this podcast - Notes from The Executive - which is to tell the incredible story behind the business success of the movers and shakers of our local world. Unscripted. Unedited. Thank you for listening.
