  • Feels like catching up with smart, hilarious friends

    I love the dynamic between the three hosts. They each bring such distinct perspectives, but it’s clear they’re all sharp and thoughtful. Listening feels like being part of a lively, honest conversation with friends. They’re funny, candid, and not afraid to dive into topics that often feel taboo. It’s one of my favorite podcasts. A lot of times, I just want something lighthearted and real, and plus, I always come away having learned something new.

These three women are the perfect blend of providing empathy that as successful as they ar... more
