Today’s podcast features Randi Hilligas, the founder of Turning Pages, a literacy advocacy program that helps women who have fallen on hard times use literacy to improve their self confidence and self love. We’ll discuss the power and impact of teaching literacy skills, creating more education opportunities for disenfranchised groups, healing your inner child through imagination, and more.
