  • Excellent podcast

    I have followed Kelly on social media for years, but I somehow just recently learned of her podcast. I recently lost my dad, and these stories, especially about Bob, hit close to home. It’s so refreshing and validating to listen to this open space of people talking about something everyone will endure at some point. I adore Kelly and I have enjoyed every episode so far. The addition of comfort food and recipes is also such a cool idea!

  • Love it - most of the time

    Love the idea of this and the guests. The only thing I find annoying is talking about Special Forces. We get it, you did Special Forces.

  • So Informative

    So glad you had Hospice Nurse Julie on the podcast. I wish I would have had this information when my mother was dying in 2020. She had dementia and we were shocked when she went into the hospital and they told us to contact hospice. We brought her home with hospice and she died in 5 weeks. She experienced so many of the things Julia spoke about. I tried learning as much as possible online as hospice isn’t there all the time. It made me less afraid to know what to expect. Can’t wait to read Julie... more

  • Disheartened

    I love the podcast 90% of the time but the only thing I have to critique is the way Kelly talks about losing grandmothers. “I’ve never lost anyone close to me before Bob but my grandmother”. It’s just so insensitive. I just lost my grandmother and I’m sorry it’s a loss especially if you had a close relationship.
