May 31, 2024 Remembering Toni Quadri
This episode is both incredibly difficult and very precious to us. It celebrates the memory of our dear friend and brilliant creator of this podcast, Toni Quadri.
If you weren't yet aware, it is with immense sadness that we bring you the news of her passing. We said goodbye to Toni in October 2023, and silence was needed since then. Now, we hope to be able to continue this project in her honour.
Here, we (Luisa and Reece) share loving memories of our time with Toni, look back on the bonds we nurtured behind the scenes of the podcast, and set our intentions for continuing this project as a labour of love to our wonderful friend.
Listen with care and with Toni in your mind and heart, as she is in ours.
