Customer Reviews
Really good content, I need without ads
How can I pay to have all of the ads removed cos it’s like 50% of the run time it’s ridiculous! I love your work and I feel like you really call me out on my issues but my main energy is pay to skip the line whenever possible. The world can’t wait thru so many ads to hear your message. Let us pay lol
What happened?? Only ads now
I used to love this podcasts and now it’s just an ad hub? Out of the first 15 mins 3 mins were just the introduction on what the podcasts is supposed to be over. I used to love this channel and now it seems money driven only
You Saved and Changed Me for the Better!! <3
Your episodes have helped me so much to get me through my 20’s and even after that. I have resonated with almost all of your videos and you have taught me new ways to help prevent something from happening again. And you literally saved my relationship with my boyfriend because I have a lot of childhood trauma and I never knew how to deal with or how to get myself help in a way but after being here and listening and especially taking notes throughout the episodes I have become a whole different person for the better and I will forever be grateful and thankful to you. Of course I will always have my bad days some more worse than others but with everything I have learned from you those bad days don’t last days or at most a week at a time. So thank you so much and keep making episodes and being an amazingly talented women.
