Customer Reviews
absolutely love this podcast! 🩷
i’m a psych student applying for grad school soon and truly love this podcast! so informative, interesting and has just the right amount of humor. Dr. Anderson’s voice is also very soothing. can’t wait for more episodes! 🧠
Hey
Real informative, I get lost in the thoughts of the experts bc it’s really sometimes hard to understand that this is a fallen world. Lots of of pain an unresolved crimes unreported sexual assaults. I’m lucky to still have my parent with me alive. I think Dr. Anderson is a good person. Her light and use of her platform for good is giving me the hope to have more insight into other humans and their possible motives. Dr. Anderson doesn’t have a threatening voice either. To me she saved me from a boss that only cared about what I could do for him. Not really about getting to know the “real” me. Oh well his loss. Now I am committed to go back and fix my mental health and not settle for less.
