  • Jan Arden… A powerful and honest conversation

    I just listened to your podcast episode with Jan Arden, and I felt compelled to write a review. I listen to all of your podcasts faithfully, often re-listening and sharing them, but this episode touched me so profoundly. It was real, raw, and deeply moving.

    Jan Arden, thank you for your honesty and vulnerability. And Melissa G., thank you for your advocacy and for the incredible work you do bringing these conversations to women everywhere. This episode truly stayed with me.
