We had a great conversation on their podcast last week (Link Below), and we are excited to get to know Maria and Chara a little better in this episode! We begin this conversation discussing the inspiration behind their podcast and their life philosophies. We explore how they have both navigated COVID-19, and the lessons it has taught them. We also discuss Maria's recent cancer diagnosis and the impact that has had on her life. Maria and Chara both have so much wisdom and humour to share, We know you'll enjoy listening to this one!
