Mondays are the best thanks to Soul & Wit

I can’t wait for Monday to come, something I’d never thought I’d say. I love this podcast, it’s feel good & Bailey & Courtney love all the things I do - books, food, music, shows, travel, the change of seasons & simplicity. This mother-daughter duo has a rapport that’s enjoyable to listen to. Thanks Bailey & Courtney for creating such a feel good podcast!

Uplifting!

I have known about and followed Courtney for about four years now. But I did not know you two had a Podcast until a few days ago. I love this podcast! It is my new favorite binge. I first listened just to the ones I thought applied to me and they were so great I am now listening to all of them.You two make me laugh, I learn so much, I feel good and also inspired after I’ve listened. Thank you!!
