I love this podcast and Lisa’s books. Practical and sensible, research backed information, validation, strategies that caregivers and professionals can utilize. I do not enjoy special guest episodes. Too much gushing and it seems like guests introduce interesting topics but then there is very little practical or actionable advice, and questions get partial answers at best. I now skip these episodes.
Apple Podcasts5MaddiehsUnited States2 months ago - I love this!!
Thank you so much, I love your podcast! I love your warmth and compassion especially for those young souls. Just one little thing: the main time I have time to listen to podcast is when I go to bed but I can’t listen to yours then as, if by chance I fall asleep, the music at the end of the podcast goes up in volume, and then wakes me up - my only problem as it curtails my listening! Apart from that, it’s a perfect score form me!
