Welcome to another episode of the Creative Diaries Podcast, where we believe that words can truly make a difference in our lives. I'm Leanne Macduff, your host, on a mission to inspire you with words that can bridge the gap between your ideas and their reality.

This week, I have the pleasure of welcoming a special guest, Anna Shannon from Oxford University Press, who shares her exceptional insights into career development, books, friendships, success, failure and so much more. You really don't want to miss this one.

It's our aim to encourage and inspire you, wherever you are in your career, relationship, or life, with discussions centred around a topical word.

To connect further with Anna, you can follow her on Instagram @toreadamockingbird or on Twitter @aashannon.
