In this episode we talk to Sharon Feanny, who is known throughout Jamaica and the Caribbean for her passion for yoga and fitness. Sharon bought her beloved "Shakti Home", a cozy villa in Treasure Beach, through Coldwell Banker a few years back and she joins us to offer some tips on the do's and the don'ts of entering the second home/villa vacation market.
