A Creative At Heart With James O’Hanlon
Welcome to Episode 20 with James O’Hanlon!
“I think it’s allowed me to be myself a little bit in a way that maybe wouldn’t have been possible if I wasn’t regional. I think regional communities are really just crying out for good people to do good things.” The beautiful words spoken by our incredible guest James O’Hanlon in today’s podcast episode.
