The best podcast

You’ve been a valued companion for me in this lockdown. I’ve laughed and cried, and been inspired by who you are and how you choose to move through this world. Am heading to Patreon 😘

Fabulous

This is a perfect pitched podcast for me. Conversational but eloquent. Like being introduced to a series of new friends at a really good party.
