The show uses the way songs connect us to our memories and our lives as a means to get to know our guests in a more intimate way. We're listening back to episode 83 featuring Fabiana Solano. She’s a native of Venezuela, an FGCU graduate and a photographer. This episode originally dropped in October of 2019, but since that time, Solano has earned a Master of Public Administration degree from Florida Gulf Coast University with a concentration in Environmental Policy and Planning, and she’s now working as a planner for the city of Punta Gorda.
