  • Reassuring and helpful

    The podcasts are not a perfect fit for me because I’m a college professor, but the sentiments of the most recent episodes have been helpful.

    We’re all trying to figure out how to get through this pandemic. But we’re also always trying to figure out how to improve and be open to change, even before all of this.

    Thanks for making these perspectives available.
