Customer Reviews
Super helpful
Lots of negativity into our psyche is so bad for us as individuals and as a society! This bit of practical hope is a much needed disrupted in the borage of despair that is so much media! This helps you not feel helpless, but hopeful!
Via Scene on Radio
I was listening to the podcast Scene on Radio and he suggested this podcast. I have listened to only two episodes and I’m excited to hear more! This podcast adds value to my life!
Versatile and Diverse
Love listening to this podcast while doing busywork; they keep everything so fresh to the point where each episode presents a new spin on policy for me.
