Customer Reviews
I love this podcast!
I love this podcast! I often listen while I’m out for a walk or having a cup of tea to wind down in the evenings. It might sound silly, but listening to Zan and her guests is like sitting down for a conversation with friends. (Of course, I’m not doing any of the talking! ;) It’s encouraging to hear from others who are in the same phase of life as I, and also those who are more experienced and share their wisdom.
Love it
I love listening to Zan and her wisdom. I know she has walked where I am walking and has much wisdom to share.
Wonderful Podcast
