  • New, but sticking it out

    I just started listening to The Good Life Project recently, when a friend told me I'd like it(she wasn't wrong). The episode about shame with Zoe felt like she was telling my story and I just felt so seen. I'm here for all deep healing conversations, and I'm sticking it out to see what else is coming! Thank you Jonathan for putting this out into the world!
