About the Show
How do we address the deepest issues in life? Join us on Women Lead Radio as Dianne Callahan, your host of The Lighthearted Life, has a conversation with Richard Collins, former BBC broadcast journalist and author of “House of Souls“, a story in which the characters are invited to address the deepest questions of life. They will talk through some big questions: What is freedom? Justice? Beauty? Why so much pain? And they will look at our greatest need – to love and be loved.
