Documenting pre-retirement, and proving — once and for all — that brunettes have more fun. On this podcast I discuss the finer things in life, what makes for happiness, the little things that make life more beautiful and how I'm becoming the ultimate version of myself. The preface is to document lessons to my future daughter, as an audio journal. Hope you like and enjoy. P.s. if you're reading this, say hi in the reviews section.
