Customer Reviews
I just love the Bakery Bears!
I’m already a big fan of The Bakery Bears Show on YouTube and I’m really enjoying working my way through the podcast episodes.
You helped me get out there again!
During lockdown my anxiety hit a high - I was fine at home, but not happy about going out anywhere. One day in late May I looked up your lovely radio show and it inspired me to get out for a walk every day. I plugged you in and off I went, timing my walks to the length of your shows. I found your gentle chatter calming, and you were the perfect company. I still get out for an stroll, nearly every day - just off now with show 24 for company. Thank you 😊
Episodes 1-4
I’m a bit late to the party but I’ve really enjoyed listening to the first 4 episodes back to back this morning whilst being able to carry on working. Mr and Mrs Bakery Bear you are inspirational! Thank you for sharing such a huge journey.
Debbie
