  • Grounding gem

    A soothing voice and well thought through structure and content. This is a podcast I yearn to return to again and again while I walk, while I potter in the garden or while I sit in bed with a cuppa. A lovely reminder of all that is important and how we all can access these simple things. What a salve for turbulent times. Really missed the hiatus and so glad you’re back!
