What Do You Know For Sure?

Society EN ↓ 197 episodes

I have been asking guests on my radio show 'What Do You Know For Sure?' since 2018. After listening to brief replies on more than 150 occasions at the end of 'Ignite the Radio Show' I decided it was such an interesting enquiry that I had to make more of it. And so this podcast was born! In this series I ask women of all ages & from all places to tell me what they know for sure. I believe when one woman stands in her truth, she encourages those who witness it to also stand in theirs. www.annehughesignite.co.uk
