Like listening to a nonjudgmental friend

Susan’s voice is very soothing, she is soft and strong and the same time, giving solid advice without being pushy or preachy, nonjudgmental, yet encouraging without being overly perky. She’s got the right balance and spot on topics. She is a great companion on car rides. It’s like having a compassionate and understanding friend sitting next to you in the passenger seat.
