The Relatable Voice Podcast

Today, we’re heading to the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area to speak with someone whose life reads like a movie — filled with courage, creativity, reinvention, and deep healing. Our guest is the incredibly inspiring Diana Morgan Dean — a woman who has worn more hats than most people do in three lifetimes: actress, award-winning photojournalist, ordained minister, sailor, and now, first-time author of the powerful memoir Compost Happens: Growing a Flourishing Life After Childhood Abuse. Diana’s story is proof that it’s never too late to speak your truth — her debut book was published at 80 years old! Visit dianamorgandean.com to learn more.
