• A Nomadic Journey | Terry Gingles & Carmen Serano
    Aug 17 2023

    This week we talk with a husband and wife who found creative fulfillment by relocating overseas. Writer and director Terry Gingles and Carmen Serano - actor, spiritual advisor and life coach met and married Los Angeles. But after growing tired of the grind of the city, they escaped to Merida, Mexico where they took a breath. And started a growing YouTube channel. Proving that you can find creative success no matter where in the world you are.
