Speaking Municipally is a proud member of the Alberta Podcast Network, powered by ATB. This week we highlighted Unit B, a multi-company coworking space located inside the historic McKenney Building on 104 Street downtown. They've got all the things you'd find in a typical coworking space, plus there's a podcasting studio! We also talked about fellow APN member Life with Dementia. "Host Johnna Lowther is an educator, author and consultant who has a passion for senior care and a belief that the world needs more empathy for the true needs of people living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia."
