  • Simple and brilliant

    I love this podcast. Complex psychological aspects are explained so they are clearer and the topics are all interesting. There’s a lot of empathy too from Kimberley and she has the kindest voice too; so makes it’s a lovely listen.

  • Clear and informative

    I am enjoying this new podcast. It’s well presented and deals with one issue at a time so that the subject is authoritatively covered and contributors are able to speak clearly and have enough time to demonstrate their knowledge and expertise.

    Excellent, long may it continue.

  • How about freelancers? Single mums?
