  • Helpful but…

    Dr. Leaf and her guests offer wise help but the ads are so annoying because they show up in the middle of a guests sentence. After several minutes of ads, it goes back to the show right back in the middle of a sentence. And number of ads in this podcast are insane. It’s an adcast, not a podcast.

  • A refreshing, practical, and needed podcast

    The way Dr. Leaf explains how the mind works is so eye-opening and empowering. Her recent episode about how political division trains your mind to fear people was outstanding and so relevant. I really appreciate how she brings science and real-life application together, helping us think healthier and live better. Thank you, Dr. Leaf, for your heart, insight, and the difference you’re making through this show.

  • Great information with SO many adds

    Incredible source of information to understand ourselves in many situations from Dr. Leaf BUT whoever is editing this podcast needs to be fired. Too many ads out of nowhere even interrupting while she’s talking that makes me lost track plus Dr Leaf talks so fast and with her accent, it’s hard to understand sometimes… I can even noticed how the editor included part of her audio book in some episodes that doesn’t make sense with she was saying before. But otherwise, thank you Dr. Leaf for your bri... more
