TV news veteran, talk show creator, branding expert, mom, and yogi, Suzanne Boyd, has been creating content since she was a little girl growing up in the tiny North Florida town of Monticello. She started her own local magazine in her bedroom using a typewriter, caught the media bug, and the rest was history. She has since earned a broadcast journalism degree from the University of Florida, garnered awards for her reporting, and spent 20 years as a morning anchor – before she retired from the news business in 2018. We are so proud to have Suzanne host “People of Palm Beach,” which debuts Thursday, February 28th, on the Florida Podcast Network. Please enjoy Jaime and Glenn's chat introducing you to host, Suzanne Boyd!
