Good Life Stories

Over the past few years, we have all had to take a closer look at a lot of things. For me I started to think of all the people in my life I hadn’t been able to see. As I started making a list of all the people I wanted to see, I realized some of the people I know are utterly amazing. The list was full of scientists, authors, artists, soldiers, entrepreneurs, the list goes on. My goal became to give something back to them. I wanted to shine a light on their stories to create something special.That is what Good Life Stories is all about. Whether our guests have had a good life or have a good life story, I’m excited to share them all with you. Host, Tracy Crowley
