Customer Reviews
Language for my Overwhelm
These two have so beautifully seen a structure to guide people thru the ridiculousness of being a person in this modern world of decision making. My life was changed when I got a password manager, and the most recent AI episode was gold. Book was fab but have temporarily leant to struggling friend. Must get it back. Congrats you amazing women keep up the good work.
Great nuggets of advice
I’m a naturally very organised person, but am still finding so many great nuggets of advice in these episodes. Choirs of angels sung when my husband added ‘source firewood for winter’ to our new shared To Do List!!
So helpful!
I’m getting quite addicted to this podcast. So many helpful tips!! I bought the book because I’m finding it so helpful. Thank you!
