Your Best New Podcast This Year
These two (and their guests) do an excellent job of walking the line between professional/insightful and fun/friendly. You will feel like you are present with them, experiencing all the emotions. Be ready to wrestle with and work on yourself. Our woundedness spills into our collectedness. That’s why relationships matter sooooo much.
