Today’s episode lands just before Christmas, so the rituals and gift-giving traditions of my guest take the front stage. And as this is a meander, we also delve into the texture and complexity of life.
I met many lovely women while on my writing retreat in Tuscany this past October. Jacki Rowe was one of them and I’m grateful to her for sharing her heart and her festive traditions with me on this wee meander.
While I’ve met Jackie as a writer, she also ran a very successful company for 25 years, an occupation which kept her away from home and occupied more space in her life than she might have liked. Now that she’s into the next phase of her life, she’s tending to her family in a much different way than she had time for while she was working. She writes – memoir and poetry – and cooks, and paints… We talk about that and a whole lot more on this episode.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Please, share these episodes widely, give us a review or a drop us a few stars. If you have comments or questions, please send them to meanderingswithtrudy@gmail.com. I read everything that arrives in my in-box.

Jackie’s company was The Garlic Box and you can learn more about it here. It’s now been sold, so the tradition lives on!
