Whenever I listen, I feel like I am sitting next to the fire having a cup of tea with a good friend who is introducing me to someone and some idea that I am wanting to hear all about. Sarah has an amazing way of being with people.
This series of podcast is consistently outstanding!!
Sarah, you have a very unique way of “inviting” every guest into their ‘best self’ and to the heart of what is most needed from their unique body of work.
This subject matter is long, long overdue in our human culture.
Deep gratitude for pursuing and excelling in a subject matter that is so often ignored or avoided.
Respectfully, EW
Sarah has given us all permission to think about our death during our life in order to create peace and ease. And the intimacy of these conversations are effortless.
This podcast really stands out with its thoughtful exploration of deep topics. Really well produced! From Deirdre
The content feels so needed right now, especially in the wake of the pandemic and as we struggle with grief caused by the Anthropocene. Each episode has left me feeling restored, strengthened, and hopeful, and has provided inspiration on so many unexpected levels, adding to my personal and professional reading lists. Fabulous podcast!
