Welcome to this episode of the River Foundation Podcast. In this episode, Dan sits down with Angela Correll (via Zoom) as she gives a behind-the-scenes view of how she developed her passions in life and how her upbringing impacted them. While Angela holds a variety of high profile roles and has achieved much in her life (Vice-Chair of the River Foundation, founder of Kentucky Soaps and Such, published author, and much more), she stays grounded in the values she learned as a young girl.
