  • Making Changes made changes in my Life

    This is an excellent program, for both members and non members.

    The stories are very honest, touching, and uplifting.

    Highly recommend, especially the CODA series, On Following My Father’s Footsteps, Christian Brotherhood and Conflict of Beliefs

  • What a unique podcast!

    I love how this podcast is just a genuine conversation between two people who have similar experiences or simply have gone through life’s up and downs together. It reminds us that we’re never alone in life. Their stories are also very inspiring. Can’t pick a favourite episode because they’re all great! Every episode is worth a listen.
