Andrea’s transparency, knowledge and sense of humor
are truly refreshing, especially when dealing with such a heavy topic. Her approach makes it digestible. This podcast has shown me so many things about my own triggers and how to start healing from them.
…content. As a first time listener from circa episode 400, difficult to start, even though I overall find the podcast very relevant! 💚
Just discovered your podcast, and so relieved to find a community of people where I don’t have to be the shiny happy person that my family expects me to be.
I’m very grateful to have found this resource. It’s such an emotionally loaded topic that I don’t listen as regularly as I would like to, but when I catch an episode, it always strikes a chord and leaves me extremely reflective. I’ve used what gets stirred up in my personal therapy.
Sincerely: thanks for all the hard work you do, Andrea!
Hi Andrea,
I found your podcast about a month ago and have been listening to it pretty much daily. Hearing people’s stories and listening to your guests has helped me feel less isolated in my own healing journey. Thank you!
