Why a Podcast?
About Us
Despite initial support, the podcast was shelved to focus on the publication. But Catherine, Stephanie and Josie kept the dream alive, with the hope that the podcast could become a reality. So when the Olivia, the Editor in Chief gave the team the green light in January to create a pilot, the team started immediately. All three would be the co-host of the podcast, with Catherine as the head producer/audio editor, Stephanie in charge of music and special effects, and Josie designing the logo and social media presence.
