I have never left a review before, takes too much time but after listening to one episode I really wanted to let Ana and others considering this podcast know that after listening to houndreds of podcast, you tube videos and audio books, this is the first time I was given REAL advice! My anxiety was clamed and I experienced a moment of healing, its just the beginning and I am so excited to see what else Ana has in store for us! Thank you for creating this podcast Ana!

Ana is definitely not fluffing her feathers and shaking crystals as she says in her podcast. She goes deep into the existence and silent suffering. The first episode had me crying at the welcome message. I felt being seen and understood like never before. Will need to revisit episodes and take notes the next time as there is so much depth. Thank you!
