Customer Reviews
Like a book you can’t put down
Loved it, best podcast in ages
Love the pod but please stop using Better Help as a sponsor!
Better Help don’t do thorough checks on the therapists working. The therapists earn minimum wage per hour and do not have sufficient supervision.
It is an unethical practice and can be a risk to those in acute mental distress.
Repetitive and over hyped
How does his have 4.5 stars? Thoroughly underwhelmed. Sue couldn’t be any more ‘shocked’ ‘stunned’ or ‘amazed’ if she tried. A mediocre delivery of what could have been an interesting yarn.
