Customer Reviews
So good
My new favorite podcast, I wish there were more episodes. The stories are beautifully curated and they evoke so many different feelings in me.
I love to feel but rarely do
This shows makes me feel so much.
Poetic, like the most relieving exhale
This show grounds me. I feel centered after listening. Sometimes the stories are heavier and sometimes lighter in the messiness of that human connection, but I always feel hopeful after the episode is done. I described this podcast to a friend like this: “You know that feeling of taking a deep breath in and holding your breath for a long time? And how that exhale feels like a weight has been lifted off your shoulders? That’s the way this show makes me feel.”
Please produce more episodes. You all are too incredible not to. Thank you for this gift of your artful storytelling.
