Grey Roots and Chicken Boots
Smile on the outside helps you to smile on the inside. Positive attitude goes a long way, even during challenging times. I am a self-taught hobby podcaster and creative writer, with a zest for creating stories that get us thinking about life, inclusion and seeing the world through a different lens. This is unfiltered, so you might hear an occasional word that might send me on time out in the chicken coop. Oh well, I have grey roots and I wear chicken boots, so it is what it is. Simply me. Enjoy!
