This week, I get to talk with a lady who has made Shelby her home, even though she wasn’t sure when she first moved here, she loves art, wine, Italy, and most of all, her daughter, Sarah and husband, Jamie Coulter. Spend a little time with us as I talk with Aimee about growing up on a farm to developing her Reiki practice to her next trip to Italy.

This week I welcome Melanie Matthews Clarke. We’ve been friends for years (even though she hasn’t lived in Shelby in a long time). But when I do see her, we just pick up where we left off. Melanie has a rich musical history. She’s played the keyboard in one of Chris’ first bands. She’s a former band wife, and she’s mom to musician, too. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Melanie as we talk about life’s ups and downs, surprises, her favorite band and getting her first tattoo.

Erin is one of those women who is beyond inspiring, empowering and has some much to share.
