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.

My longtime work friend Michelle Parise, senior producer at CBC, had a successful first season of her podcast Alone: A Love Story in which she spills her guts about what happened after her husband cheated and her life exploded.
It's not all sad.
Michelle talks about why she made the podcast, her ex-husband's reaction, and the resurgence of artistic expression in her life.
WHAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID
TV & radio journalist Zulekha Nathoo talks about an intense car conversation in her early days as a VJ, and what she still has to deal with.

I have known Zulekha Nathoo since journalism school. A TV and radio journalist who has interviewed dozens of A-listers including Ryan Gosling, Denzel Washington and Priyanka Chopra and covered major events like the Grammys, Oscars and the women’s march, she's also one of the most equally humble and quietly ambitious people I've ever known.
In this episode, Zulekha talks about the roots of her humility, living in L.A. with a journalist husband and a 3 year old, and is deeply honest about her struggle living as a Muslim in the United States.
More about her work here.
WHAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID
Michelle Parise, radio producer and creator of the CBC podcast Alone: A Love Story, never has nothing to say. Except for that one time when she didn't speak up for a friend at work who was being sexually harassed.

Werk It: A Women's Podcast Festival 2017
