This interview with Jodi Massengale is full of storytelling, intention and family history.  Jodi is a native of Los Angeles with ties to Louisiana and has a large, close knit, extended family. She talks about her experiences, her famous tea parties, meeting Oprah and how Creole in Vegas brought us together. Her message to connect with family and friends especially right now really resonated with me. Preserve your story and tell your story, it will help you find the roux of who you are.
