And then she wrote a book about mystics, shamen, psychics, astrologers and more. What happened next? Find out in this podcast, and next time you hear a wacky theory on Zestology, you'll know exactly the right approach to take - spoiler alert, it's not sceptic, it's not woo-woo, it's somewhere in between.
