Customer Reviews
Working with the Universe
Honestly I truly believe the universe gives when you need help on your own pathway/journey in life. I came across A millennial mind by Shivani Pau at a real low in life - I feel truly blessed to have found this gem: A great listen and so many real open conversations about life and journeys to be had - covering some really helpful and promising areas. As a 41 year old I’ve hit a low and this podcast has helped me lift my spirits allowing me to action the development I need to take in my life. Gratitude, Manifesting and Positive mind set. As a South Asian myself; the expectations drilled into me as a child are subconsciously still there. This podcast covers so many life changing topics that everyone will truly resonate with. Definitely a well needed and open podcast that clearly shows passion and a way to give back and help so many listeners to develop themselves. I’m Turning 42 this year and mapping my life - thank you Shivani for helping without even knowing it!
