Jan Loves to Talk and Metro Chicks Love to Listen

I just had the chance to listen to the interview that my partner, Jan, gave recently to Lisa Marie of MetroChickradio. Jan, although she loves to talk (did I already mention that?) is shy when it comes to tooting her own horn. Listen to the interview and you’ll see why she is my hero. Yes, that was rather schmaltzy, but I meant it.

MetroChickradio is based just outside of Detroit, Michigan and is a Women’s Internet Radio Station founded by producer and talk show host, Lisa Marie. Their mission to inform, educate and empower women at every level made them the perfect venue to interview Jan on her life, work and personal philosophy.

Jan and Lisa cover a variety of subjects including Jan’s interesting and rather tawdry past. Alright… interesting, yes… tawdry, no. I may have been channeling my own past. Anyway, the part of the story that I love the most and I think speaks volumes is the very beginning. Jan was born in Peculiar, MO. PECULIAR!

The story that she did not tell was how she used to lock friends in her attic and make them pretend to make cold calls. Now it could have gone one of two ways at this point… a serial killer could have been born or what actually happened… a SUPER SALESMAN! The jury may still be out of which was the lesser evil, but I think goodness did prevail.

By now, you may have realized that this post isn’t really going to tell you much about the interview. That you are going to have to listen to yourself.

Go.
Now.

Are you still here?
Fine. I’ll tell you a smidge. Jan talks about how she has lived her life with passion and no regrets. She has followed her own path and focused on what she wants to do rather than what she is afraid of.

There. See? She’s hero-material!
