Storytelling with depth
Thank you so much for these. I was especially touch by the recent episode with Naomi Mourra who grew up Jehovah Witness.
Having shared a very similar journey it was beautiful to listen to how both the host and Naomi narrated the story with compassion and disclosure.
Thank you so much ❤️
