EP122: Driveaway Queen: Erica Austin’s Story of Family and Freedom

from Six-Figure Trucker · host Heard Podcasts

Erica Austin remembers the thrill of the open roads as she recalls the road trips she experienced with her dad as a little girl. This dad went on to teach his daughter how to drive, and decades later, the beam of Erica’s smile still radiates through the windshields. Those years have also given Erica more to smile about. As the matriarch of a big family of her own, she’s a loving mom and a doting grandma. But make no mistake: Erica Austin is still a boss behind the wheel! We’re so pleased to welcome one of our finest drivers to the show today as she lights up the airwaves with her infectious personality and savvy wisdom.
