Hello and welcome back to Extra Ordinary with me James Wallis, the podcast that shines a light on ordinary people who have gone on to do and see extraordinary things.  In this episode, I am joined by the incredibly brilliant Carina Maggar - author of How to Make Work Not Suck. I was absolutely taken aback by Carina's energy and also by the fact she has literally had 100 jobs and knows so much about just about everything. From getting her TWO books published to her views on sexuality - this podcast pretty much has all topics covered! Carina, a copywriter by trade, has dabbled in presenting, advertising, counselling and even selling bath bombs at Lush! It was fascinating to hear her views on the world and she had me in fits of laughter along the way.  I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did making it.  Get in touch with James: https://linktr.ee/jameswallis Get in touch with Carina: https://www.carinamaggar.com/ Get the book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Make-Work-Not-Suck/dp/0857829025
