Customer Reviews
The Loveliest Podcast ever
This podcast is such a gentle guide to self improvement - I’m obsessed.
I am happier for listening
I have listened to this podcast since episode one and have incorporated much of what Gretchen and Elizabeth discuss into my daily life and thoughts. I can emphatically say that I am happier for it!
What’s not to love
Everyday on my way to work a listen to this podcast and on my way back I listen to Happier in Hollywood. The Happiness project inspired me. I hope this podcast will continue for many years. E - NG
