I interviewed Letha on my program “Talk Of The Town”. We are in the Northwest Georgia area and reach out to half of the state. She exudes warmth and is so forthcoming with her information to the listener. I have started on a number of her healing methods and feel better already. She is truly a book of knowlege!
