Just Ask Em is a podcast that aims to provide a platform for locally owned businesses, creative and entrepreneurial voices, and topics of conversation that are timely and/or deep.
In this episode (link here), we discuss the local business that captured my heart at 11 years old, talk travel and the many lessons that come from exploring new cultures, and discuss ways we can live more mindfully and present in a world that’s chronically trying to steal your attention (full topic breakdown with timestamps included below)—all in about 45 minutes!
If you don’t have time to listen to the whole episode now, I hope you’ll at least bookmark it for later. Enjoy :)
