Wow. Beautiful words, soul and magic. I could listen to you all day and can’t wait for more of your episodes.
Good luck on your continued strength and success ✨
Absolutely brilliant ! Story looking forward to the next episode next week
I agree there is a person who encourages the delight of reading, for me it was my grandmother and like you it started with storytelling. Learning before those magical scribbles on a page were turned into sense. My grandmother would tell me stories, in a huge bed. Wonderful words of other worlds woven into stories. Imagination was important and encouraged. I was told that I was overly imaginative and a knowing child by her, which made me feel magical in its self. I really loved this episode.
Loving the episodes. Unreal how open and willing you are to share your story, ups and downs - thank you. It’s really good to hear men opening up and talking about emotional things. Very brave.
Thank you, Luke, for your vulnerability in this episode. I got genuinely emotional listening to it! Your openness and honesty really hit home. It takes courage to share so deeply, and it made the conversation feel incredibly real and human. I’m grateful for your willingness to go there and let others feel seen through your story.
