In this episode, Camille Di Maio joins me on the Who I Met Today podcast. Camille is an accomplished author, realtor, wife, mom, and traveller. We talk about her most recent historical fiction novel, which I absolutely loved. I enjoyed learning about "stewardess" requirements for those who wished to fly with Pan American Airlines in the sixties. We also discuss her "celebrity" meetings, homeschooling, unfinished projects, her next book, and what she had to give up to pursue her dream. And, as always, Camille shares her next new thing!

When I lived in Houston, I watched the NBC news and thought Roseann Rogers had the greatest job in the world. She was known as the Buzz Lady and reported on all the new things—restaurants, events, exhibits—the fun stuff going on around Houston. Fast forward three years ago—I’m living in Nashville, and I get a phone call. Hi Pam, my name is Roseann Rogers, and I just moved here. A mutual friend gave me your contact info. Roseann is still the best at finding great events—and now Nashville things to do—and I thought she’d be perfect for coming up with holiday gift ideas.
