The show is hosted by Visit Jackson’s Content Marketing Manager, Paul Wolf, with Visit Jackson Director of Communications Yolanda Clay-Moore occasionally anchoring the program.
The goal of the short form podcast is to bring the stories of Jackson’s changemakers to life in a short, easy listen, and help you gain a better understanding of what makes the city so special.
Officially launched in February 2020, Soul Sessions explores conversations on culture from Jackson, Mississippi, and posts twice a month on podcast platforms.
