June Sarpong: "To someone, you are the most important person on this planet."

In this episode of 'The Lulu Podcast: Turning Points' Lulu chats to TV presenter and author June Sarpong. June talks to Lulu about the big turning points in her life - fleeing Ghana when she was only four years old; being in a serious car accident at the age of 14; getting a job presenting for MTV; and losing her brother ten years ago. She talks about what it was like to interview Bill Clinton; why she felt she had to leave the UK to move to America; the impact she felt she had working at the BBC as Global Director of Creative Diversity; and how she has learnt ways to 'fit in.'
