Breath of fresh air!
I don’t think it’s possible to decrease the amount of bad news going forth from all media sources. But, I do think it’s possible to look for and increase the amount of good news that a person takes in! I’m so glad I found this podcast. I’ve only listened to a couple episodes and I just feel lighter and happier. So thank you for the podcast! Please keep it going! 🙏😊
