One of my very favorite podcasts! I love hearing guests speak on topics from physical movement to parenting to disability. I get exposed to new and different perspectives which I really appreciate. I also love listening to Virginia and Corinne talk about fashion, diet culture, dating, lifting weights… I’d probably listen to them talk about anything. Thanks for making this delightful and informative show.
I’ve loved following this podcast over the years! I always learn so much and love the personality. It’s taken many forms and directions, and guess what? Always a winner!
