    This has quickly become one of my favorite podcasts and the latest episode, with Doug Abrams, was the absolute panacea to a difficult week here in the U.S. I really do find both wisdom *and* action in this podcast and it inspires me and allows me to see and feel a bigger picture. Thank you so much! Keep doing what you do!
