Julie contacted me after our recording session to tell me she reconsidered something she withheld from our conversation; she wrote a book and was READY to talk about it! It's a true honour to break this news to the broadcast world because she's trusting me with her story. I hope you enjoy this episode and appreciate Julie's perspective on this crazy industry as much as I do.
