Lisa Marie Donovan struggled against poverty, sexism, insecurity, family history to achieve success on her own terms and to tell her story in the recently published book, Our Lady of Perpetual Hunger. Listen in to hear how she went from single mom to world famous baker to published first time author. Most rewarding of all, perhaps, learn about Lisa's supernova of female friendships, a model for community, love, and support.
