12 Tremors Before Christmas

Loading player...

Year-end brings with it feelings of nostalgia and reflection. And while lifequakes are big events that permanently alter the course of a life, we want to recognise the smaller shifts and shakes - tremors, if you will, that sent us on a detour.

This episode is a compilation of 12 short stories, from 12 different people, who each experienced a tremor before Christmas.
Plus, since so many have asked, I have an update on Zoe too.
