  • Love this podcast!

    This podcast is such a gift. Both Beth and Eliza are relatable, knowledgeable, and gracious in how they share their wisdom and resources. I’m so grateful that wise people in this field do not want to keep their wisdom for themselves but want to multiply. I also LOVE the guests they bring on the show. Most of them I have been familiar with but the ones I have not know about have added to my list of resources in incredible ways. Thank you, ladies!

  • One of my favorites

    My two favorite genres of podcast are mental health and Christianity and this combines both perfectly. Too often we separate our spiritual health and our physical/mental health but this podcast reminds us that it’s a holistic thing. They are so friendly and personable, it’s like having a chat with two very wise friends who give the best advice ever.
