Season 2, Episode 13: Martha Boston
My guest today is Martha Boston, a woman of wonderful insight whose journey has led her from practicing law to leading transformational excursions for people on a sailboat in the Caribbean and now at business and personal growth retreats.
During our interview Martha said, “Heart is the place from which life is led.” This insight struck me and dug deeper with my questions about this.
