Stone Stafford and Jony Van
L.I.F.E. on podcast
L.I.F.E. (which stands for Listening and Inspiring Friends in Entertainment) used to be a live monthly event held at Icon Studios in Atlanta,Georgia. Founded by Stone Stafford, L.I.F.E. was to be a place where people in entertainment could come together and learn valuable life lessons while also being able to share challenges and difficulties in their careers and personal lives. Then COVID happened. At the persistent urging of his co-host, Jony Van, Stone made the pivot to taking L.I.F.E. to the podcasting platform. So welcome, to L.I.F.E. on podcast. We're glad you're here.
