Nostalgia Podcast

Welcome to our International Women's Day Special, in this episode, I sit down with my sisters, Simone and Ellie, as we give a little insight into our sisterhood, the songs we play when we meet up for our siStar time and a sneak peek into the topics we discuss too. And no, no typo - it's siStar - not sister.

This is one of my most vulnerable and special episodes where I share a side of myself I don't usually share publically. But in sharing, I hope you as a woman or man feel inspired to find your tribe and safe space.
