About this listen

Welcome to Wild Geese! Think of this as your little plot in the woods where you can lay down a picnic blanket, gather with your friends, and gab! I’m your host, Anna Corinne - a NYC based podcast strategist and actress. Every other Tuesday, I’m doing deep dives on creativity, community organizing, activism, and more. I want listening to Wild Geese to feel like night in a fluffy chair, cat purring at your feet, warm light creating a glow, and all of your friends in one room together.Anna Howard | Podcast Strategist Social Sciences
