Customer Reviews
I am pretty picky with my podcast
But I really like this podcast. It is short. Matt’s voice is great for podcasting. It’s simple. He talks about the real things that I have felt as a Bar Prepper and give tools for practicing. And best of all it’s positive! Thank you for this podcast.
Exactly what I needed
Mastering a healthy mentality about the bar exam is at least as important as mastering the material. Having a mindfulness approach specifically tailored to tackling this exam has been a Godsend, especially for someone who fell behind early and has struggled to deal with the stress of catching up. Many, many thanks for this fantastic resource!
Really helped me get back on track
I hit a wall studying today and burned through the first few podcasts. Allowed me to refocus and relax a little.
Thank you : )
