I highly enjoy this podcast! It’s perfect for bringing relatable content to the viewers of every day topics that people need to talk about! I love how fun it is and encouraging!!!
These conversations are so important and life giving for me! I feel left out in so many spaces because of my out of the box thoughts/ideas in regards to Bible Belt Christianity and this helps my heart and soul.
I am thankful for the truth in the episodes and how Kara addresses hard questions with humor and grace. It’s a fresh perspective. Must listen!
I love the honesty, humor, and perspective!
I look forward to the new episode every week. It truly is a can’t miss.
In today’s world it’s often hard to have real conversations about tough topics. Kara Kae and Elizabeth make this process easier by starting the conversation for us and inviting us to join them in it, in a loving and sincere way. Three cheers for Asking for a Friend!
I recently began listening to this podcast after hearing Kara-Kae talk about her book, “Mom Up” on another podcast I listen to and I’ve been really enjoying Asking for a Friend. The variety of topics discussed suites women in all different stages of life, however most women can relate to each episode whether the discussion fully pertains to them or not. I so look forward to where this podcast goes and what the hosts discuss in the future!
I’ve only been able to listen to one episode so far, but the one on depression actually did help me so much- something specific that was said made so much sense. I am glad to not be alone. Thank you for talking about those “hard to bring up” topics. Can’t wait to hear more!
I absolutely love hearing these ladies share about important topics in such a real and uplifting way. This is my new fav podcast!!
I just discovered your podcast & it is amazing. I’ve listened to the episode on depression twice now and it is life giving! Thank you for what you do!
Love love this podcast. I’ve laughed and cried and related so much to this. I live how they focus on real life real mom issues like children with anxiety postpartum depression and how it’s more common than people want to admit or understand. I have referred two new moms and three church friends to this podcast too.
A podcast worth the listen, real life topics and ways to handle challenges life may hand us!!
Finally. Women just like me talking about real topics in a real way. Thank you, Elizabeth and Kara-Kae, for tackling these things with grace and warmth. Listening to this podcast is like sitting with friends over coffee (or chips and queso) and just getting into what's really on our minds.
Relevant topics for the modern woman! Exactly what I needed, the title says it all!
Love that Kara-Kae and Elizabeth are willing to tackle the tough subjects and talk about these topics!
