Learn through stories

I love the idea behind Melanie's podcast which is to hear people's stories and learn from them. It's not an educational podcast but it is cool to get an inside look at how other people are living their life and ideas they have. They talk about things you don't usually talk about on this podcast and that's what makes it different. I recommend it!

A quality podcast

This is a phenomenal production. Melanie does a great job at letting the individual personalities and insights of her interviewees shine through, making each episode unique. The podcast itself is also soothing and just generally a positive force. Highly recommend.
