This week's PODCAST with Mario Corena & ''Vogliamoci Bene'', we welcome in Studio Sanremo special guests MJ, Kez and Alex from Skylight.
A bit about MJ. MJ was born in the US, and raised in Europe and Africa. A natural born communicator, she attempts to foster a safe and non-judgemental environment to invite people to discuss areas of a personal nature openly, so that they can explore their relationships freely and fully informed.
