Thank you for making this podcast. It’s helpful to hear of other peoples experiences. I feel less alone in navigating my family. I found the episode about the viral video particularly insightful and helpful.
I have listened to this podcast for over a year, but found this week’s episode with analysis of the estranged parent video SO helpful and validating. Best episode yet, hands down.
I love this podcast! Great content. Only criticism is that it can be hard to listen to due to the host’s vocal fry.
This is an excellent podcast that covers relatable topics of family estrangement. That said, the delivery and production has opportunities for improvement. The abrupt breaks for advertiser content (no outro or intro) is jarring. At times, the host shifts into a voice with significant vocal fry, which makes it difficult to listen to the entire ep—even though the continent is so strong. If you listen to her disclaimer at end, there is no fry—so I’m not criticizing her natural voice.
Thanks to Whitney for your expertise, care and levity on this amazing show. Please keep it up!
