Ep 1: Are we destined to meet?

This episode is our first one so what better time to introduce ourselves and this podcast.

Hello there!

This episode is our first one so what better time to introduce ourselves and this podcast. We are Broad Radio founder and all-round superstar, Jo Stanley and author and media woman of many talents, Mimi Kwa. Some amazing guests join us in future episodes, but in this one Ep 1 (wow we did it!) we are each other’s guests. It’s a humous, energetic, deep dive into our own A to BE journeys and we unpack what we are even doing here… as in here on the show, not solving the meaning of life puzzle… or are we?
