“Ilja Abbattista was a guest on the 6th episode of Pouring Out Perfume Podcast. As the host and creator of the podcast, I have to filter out the guests that may not be as influential or encouraging due to the message I am trying to convey to listeners, that being said, Ilja checked every box I asked of her as far as speaking with authenticity and encouragement.  She was also a joy to work with and kept me smiling through the whole interview.  She has a heart for helping others and her voice portrays that love.  It was fabulous working with a speaker so influential and motivating. Will absolutely be asking her to return for another episode”.
