  • The best calming podcast

    I’ve been listening every morning, for the last few months! This is now my favorite podcast, and it thoroughly helps me relax. Sometimes on the hard days I will listen in the afternoon to help get me through my day. Listening to Chad‘s voice is very calming, and is an instant reset. If you need to escape from earth for about 10 minutes, this is where you can come!

  • Amazing

    I stumbled upon this podcast as I have been struggling mentally, of what could have been, if I had made different choices. The second episode I listened to talked about daydreaming about a life you didn’t get to live, but wished to live it. It completely resonated with me and helped me realized to be happy with the life I am currently living. Wow!
