Media Girlfriends co-founder Hannah Sung has a new podcast! It’s called At The End of The Day with Hannah Sung. Hannah has a newsletter of the same name, which is a news perspective that puts people first -- relationships, caring, social fairness and the greater good. The podcast does the same, and you can listen to it at the end of the week to help process it all.

This first episode is about how to bring joy into your life, and features comedian and co-host of the Great Canadian Baking Show, Ann Pornel. Enjoy!

Tori Allen is a freelance producer and journalist living in Thailand. We became friends during her eight years at CBC Radio working on Metro Morning, q and DNTO.

Last year Tori and I sat in the bunkie of a cottage at our annual Lady Camp trip and talked about how living abroad as a 'trailing spouse' means she constantly reinvents herself for work, something she realizes she has always done.
