What does Soul teach us about life’s purpose? This and more on Lights, Camera, Analysis

  • Great show

    I immediately subscribed and downloaded several episodes upon reading the descriptions. As a former actress and someone who understands depression, I appreciated the “perks of being a wallflower” episode. Keep up the fantastic content.
