Customer Reviews
Lovely podcast with useful information
I love this podcast- both ladies have a pleasant voice and the topics are wide but this keeps it interesting. The tips and hacks are sometimes so easy you think ‘well I might have thought of that’ but well frankly, I didn’t so... and it’s mostly easy, straightforward things you can actually do to make a difference, not something unattainable.
This is now my go to podcast in the car or while cooking and I would recommend it to everyone!
Everyday ritual one or few episodes 🔝podcast
This podcast makes my life happier and I listen to you every day. I really truly love your hacks and stories. I am a big fan, follow you on Instagram and bought your four tendencies book. Thank you ladies, you are so inspiring. Good luck and take care.
Great podcast
I love the podcast however the increasing amount of advertisement is really getting on my nerves. It’s also not at all relevant for non US citizens.
