Fantastic!

I love the show topics of growth, potential and personal development. The host is analytical, thoughtful and smart. I enjoy and learn so much from every episode. I just discovered the show so I’m in full binge mode. I’ve been looking for shows with hosts of different backgrounds to intentionally broaden the content I consume. I especially loved the episodes that explored navigating life and work as a person of color in America.

Comforting , inspiring and motivating

The topics and guests of all In the Arena episodes are so thoughtful and useful in every day life. You can bring so much of this content to help with marriage, friendship, parenting, business relations, etc. I am a new listener but I am hooked. Highly recommend this podcast to anyone who needs a lift , a laugh or advice in how to communicate things both to yourself and others. Leah (host) is so personable and lovely, I feel like I am having a conversation with her in every episode.
