Internationally best-selling author and creator of an 8 figure creative company Leonie Dawson (dat's me!) brings her ridiculous sense of humour and wild oversharing to the podcast world! What is this podcast about? Who f*cking knows! It's all a glorious mystery! But it will likely be a delicious buffet of self help, business, creativity, marketing, family and life... and I might just introduce you to some of my favourite people if I'm called. Mostly, I'm just here to create and share... and hope that it touches your heart in just the way it needs. (Pronouns: She/They)
