I’ve always been enthralled by her loving nature and her ability to speak life into others. Her beautiful attributes have been evident to me for many years now, but our first interaction was in 2015, at the University of Northern Iowa. Vicki St. James was my College Writing & Research Professor.
Listen as we dive into the dedication it took for Vicki, a single parent, to raise her five children while working full-time—and spending fifteen years in college to attain her three degrees: a BA and two MAs.
Vicki’s unique road to living her best life is fueled by her ardent quest for knowledge and her intense love for reading, which she developed from a very early age. We speak on instilling a love of literature in her children and then again with her grandchildren.
After nearly a decade of teaching at numerous institutions of higher learning, Vicki has been enjoying her second chapter in radio, as the first chapter had closed by choice—rather precipitously back in 2006. When given the chance to return to her first love, radio, she embraced the opportunity!
Vicki hosts a daily radio program on classic country music station, 106.5 FM, streaming live around the world at iowacorncountry.com, and via the free app—available wherever you download your apps. Iowa Corn Country, 106.5 FM, part of the locally owned Coloff Media family of radio stations throughout North Iowa, keeps her busy by day.
By night—when she’s not emceeing a community event—Vicki is owner, operator, and CEO of St. James Professional Editing Services, wherein she enjoys using her expertise as a professional editor to help other creators achieve their goals and literary dreams.
