On this episode I chatted with Teresa Knox owner of The Church Studio. We talked about her love for music and why she decided to purchase and bring the studio back to life. Teresa has an incredible story, some might say it's the "American Dream". Growing up with very little, being homeless with a young child and building a life only she could dream of. Proof you can do anything if you work hard.
