  • Fantastic podcast

    I’ve been listening to Manda’s podcast for a few years now. It’s become one of my main go-to sources for new ways of thinking, of seeing the world, of practicing change and making sense of current happenings - even of finding comfort consolation and hope. I hugely appreciate the time she’s put into creating this monumental body of knowledge and insight.
