Customer Reviews
Not for everyone BUT FOR SURE, FOR ME!
Depending on what you’re looking for or the type of podcasts you’re used to listening to, this may take a few episodes. It may grab you immediately or take a few listens to get comfy. Once you get into this, you will (hopefully) realize how wonderful and helpful this podcast truly is. These podcasts have helped me through so many weekends and long nights. I absolutely love Paul and this show!
WOW
Best of episode #29 is a must hear episode.
Inviting, Honest, Insightful
I stumbled upon this podcast a few wks ago and find it to be a beautiful and funny coping resource... because so intertwined with healing and finding livable meaning is knowing that other people have similar frightening and depressive experiences too, and taking away the shame and secrecy from it all. Paul, your questions for guests are so great and really get to the core of what is happening in as much as it can be translated into language. Guests really dig deep because you seem to make them feel safe. Thank you! And I love hearing about your own life struggles. Tender stuff-
