  • I wanted to like it...

    I couldn't get over how much the host is CONSTANTLY saying "mmmm" and "mmhmmm" every other second, while her guests speak. It honestly irked me to the point, I couldn't bother listening to more than a few episodes. I'm bummed, because the content is great and I enjoyed the takeaways from the episodes I listened to, but I just can't stomach hearing her interject with mouth noises, as it adds nothing, but distraction. :/

  • A Breezy But Super Thoughtful Podcast

    A cut of this podcast came up on my IG algorithm and I’ve never been more glad to get fed new content. I was instantly charmed to Hope and laughed enough at the clip to seek out this podcast in its entirety. The episodes are highly insightful and fun and would be accessible to any woman, in any phase of her dating life!

  • NOT about SOBER BOYS

    NOT at ALL about sober boys.

    Found this and thought “hey that’s for me”.

    NOPE. FOOLED.

    It’s just

    WOMEN talking about THEMSELVES!!!

    Crazy. TERRIBLE name choice. Confusing for good, honest sober boys. Outrageous and reckless use of naming conventions.

    4/5 overall.

    Good topics not too segment heavy and solid editing and pace with great insight and not too many ads.
