Carolann
...but how exactly does an ex-corporate fashion PR girl find a voice of her own? As a self-dare and challenge to myself as a writer, and as a human being, I started Good Girl GoGoGo as an exercise in letting go...Letting go of pitching stories and finding stories instead... letting go of a painful story I kept inside... and letting go of the dis-ease that I permitted to define who I am [was]. Trading in cautious words for the honest, I've shed layers of corporate tongue twisters and blasted myself far beyond my comfort zone, and landed in a better place - one of joy and ease and gratitude.
