It's been a hot minute since I've podcasted, and I have truly missed it like crazy. It has been one heck of a year, and I have truly been SUPER BUSY. However, when it comes to releasing episodes, I really want to continue to share my passions with the world, so I have decided to start a new series through this podcast called "Episodes from the Vault."
Every episode is going to feature an interview I have done over the past year, and despite the extremely overdue release, I still want to share it with whoever will listen. Without further ado, this is Episodes From the Vault.
